Well, we are just back from London for the weekend... I have always wanted to be able to say that - I'm just off to London for the weekend!
Of course, living in Oz and being off to London for the weekend would mean you're insane - you'd barely get there and make it back in a weekend, let alone do anything!
From Stockholm, that's a different story - we flew out at stupid o'clock Friday morning (about 3am), got to the hotel, had a nap (we'd been travelling since midnight and it was about 6.30am by the time we got to our hotel), went down to the Leicester Square half price tix box, then did a little bit of shopping. Then off to the first of 3 shows on the West End for the weekend!
We saw "The woman in black" - oh my goodness, freaky scary play - but so well done. Then Saturday saw some more (disappointingly unsuccessful shopping), "Avenue Q" matinee show - so so politically incorrect, and yet funny as, and to top it off went last night to "We will rock you" it certainly seemed the right way to see out the weekend!
We were up again at 4am this morning to get ready for our early flight back 'home' to Stockholm... A whirlwind, but so enjoyable anniversary weekend!
