So, with no excuses for not getting out and about, we decided to venture forth and head into central London. Our first stop was to be the Polish Cultureal Centre to view the display of history of the Polish armed forces. Alas, bad information, other displays but not what we were looking for. 
Jumped on a bus and headed for the Tate Britain gallery. Spent a couple of hours browsing the exhibitions, with particular interest in the Pre-Raphaelites.
After the cultural fix we took a wander along Milbank and Vauxhall.
From here we made our way through Belgravia and down to Knightsbridge.
Around Wellington Arch, the Australian Memorial and Hyde Park corner before joining the crowds at Harrod’s to look at the things we wouldn’t be buying. Just plain ordinary tyre-kickers!
At this stage we began feeling our age and decided we had pushed our luck a little so we headed for home.
Later we went out for another pleasant evening meal with Jim before returning to catch some more sleep.
Watch out for a flying pot plant.
L S Lowry’s “The Pond”
Love these small stories within the overall paintings.
Can you work this out? There is supposed to be a pro-slavery element to this painting!
Thank you, that's my cultural fix for the day xx
