Somerset House, a great place to chill out on a sunny afternoon


Relaxing with my husband after an epic day spent visiting many wonder in the city. Started @ Embankment, then on to the 1626 watergate of the former York House built for the Duke of Buckingham, then onwards for some medieval fun @ Temple Church(Wow), down Fleet St to Somerset house for coffee, rollies and dancing water. All of this topped of by a warm welcome @ the spectacular Savoy Hotel, drop in for a nose around, worth an investigation as the hotel recently re-opened after a cool 6million£ make over, where much care has been taken in renovating but also restoring much of this historic hotels original features.
Glamourous, decadent and evocative, all things a hotel built on the profits from Gilbert and Sullivan musicals should be. Not to be missed!

Soho I love you x o x


More post Royal wedding fun retro style on Old Compton St;)

Right Royal treat!


Post Royal Wedding treats @ Maison Bertaux on Greek St, Soho. An authentic little tea and cream cake joint run by a proper old gent, I'm guessing in his late 70's atleast! Stop by Maison Bertaux if you fancy getting all nostalgic with a cheeky little leap back to a sweeter time @ this genuine gem in the heart of town, I cannot recommend it highly enough. Enjoy!

a tribute to a legend


Werner Herzog we adore you, oh yes we do! Where would cinema be without you and your mystical ways? You have touched my very soul in so many a way. Keep on doing what you do, it is magnificant, try not to get shot at too often and hopefully one day we will all find our Everest.

You're lost little turtle;


Always a sad sight to see. Abandoned, lost, misplaced.....

Primary nature


All the pink blossom had been blown away in the city of sin but I stumbled upon a shady corner in the Shire which was still awash with an ocean of pink. Nature subduing the primary colours into subtle tones of warm love. Full of the promise of a passionate summer;)
