Don’t mention the war
One thing I had discerned after the suitcase episode this morning. There was no way I would be able to manipulate my luggage into a cab and then down stairs and escalators at Paddington Station to catch the express train

Cripplegate
Twenty hours a long time to sit in confined space, albeit a two-storey one, with 477 people. I knew there was a problem before I left my room at the hotel. Very early I arose to pack and vacate the

So long and ooroo
I know where to grab the pork crackles in the Tesco Express at Russell Square. It must be time for me to move on, so this may be the last post from London. I have to pack my bags and
