This morning we went to the home of my old King's Singers friend Alastair Hume for coffee. We had a wonderful 2.5 hours of conversation - and a lot of coffee and chocolate digestive biscuits!
We walked back toward Angel Tube Station along the Regent Canal, which is a block or so behind the Hume's Islington home.
We took the train to Waterloo and walked to Lambeth, where Larry was able to talk to someone from the Library about the best way to find out more information about his putative archepiscopal ancestor. (Thought I'd use putative in a complete sentence once more and then throw in archepiscopal!)
We walked back to Westminster Bridge along the Southbank Embankment with its great views of the Houses of Parliament and the boats on the Thames. (It's the place where all the US London reporters stand!)
We took the Tube back towards the flat. When we arrived, Larry went to Holland Park to try to find the head gardener to get some iris names while I went to the computer to check us for our flight home. I went out and did a couple errands, and now we are organizing and packing to go home!
