Within a lion's roar...


What a beautiful time of year to be back in the Old Dart.  Yes, after being pickled in port for a few weeks, I felt that I really must be in London for the up-coming nuptials.  And of course, the city is positively heaving with anticipation of the day. Bunting everywhere and a buzz on the streets that is difficult not to get caught up in. I have however, found time to wander through the park and meander along the Thames to, what I think, is one of the most stunning institutes of art in the world... the Tate Modern.  Marvellous!! 
In celebration of my return, I thought it most fitting to rest the bones at a small establishment within view of the lions of Trafalgar Square  and within a lion's roar of the abbey.  A perfect place for a rousing gin and tonic, made with one of my favourites, Tanqueray Rangpur, with a wafer thin slice of lime on the side. Chin chin!!
