    And a great day we 'ad!

    Yesterday Elaine and myself went to London to spend the day with Hamish. All we did was talk, laugh, drink and eat. This was how it mapped out. We met up at 11.30am and had a nice walk to Piccadilly. Found pub and had a few beers. Walked again up to Covent Gardens. Found pub had some more beers and also something to eat. Walked back to the National Gallery and went in for about 40 mins or so. Caught tube back to Victoria. Found pub and went and had a few more beers before we all left for home. We left each other about 6.15pm .. just dunno where the time went. Only a few piccys were taken I'm afraid. We did meet one women on the tube platform who thought it was fantastic that Hamish wore his Kilt all the time and myself most of the time. Here's the only pics I took





    It was really a fab day out for us all.

    I just love that Whisky shop . I've seen it many times I've never gone in.

    Nice to see you all again maybe we'll see each other(For the 1st time)and again(In Hamish's case) sooner than you think ?????

    Ham, I never cease to learn from your wisdom.

    Color coordinated undershirt even....sure looks better than a white one would.

    So, now I see I can wear my colored t-shirts in the winter too, just peeking out from under my regular shirts.

    Trying my maroon Don't Worry Be Hopi t-shirt under a maroon shirt with my Thomson gray semi-trad tonight.
