Last night rather than watch the Phantom Toss like virtually everyone else in Australia I tuned in to Sweet Revenge on the ABC. Which was not only a very good programme, but also made me feel slightly homesick for London. For those that missed it (or watched Law and Order or maybe even one of the other films on last night) it was a story of revenge but London was definitely one of the stars of the show.
Lots of long lingering shots of St Pauls and views of the Thames were interspersed in the story. In addition the main character was a professor of history at an unnamed London college whose specialisation was the history of the city. The show also managed to dig up lots of interesting pieces of information on the mapping of London, not something I had thought about before but fascinating never the less.
Its lucky then that we are going there in less than three months.
Three months? Oh dear, that means I’ve got an awful lot to do and not much time to get it done in.
I’d better get down to business. Does anyone know of a good storage place in Sydney? Or want to buy a Honda Prelude? Or a Beneteau First 375? No, well keep us in mind if you come across anyone who does.
