I am feeling well enough to head into town for a while.
I’ll probably find a bite and then go either to the V&A or perhaps the National Gallery for the Canaletto exhibit. Maybe both! Or maybe I’ll go to the Gallery first! I’ll decide when I get on the tube.
I’ll probably save the British Library exhibit on English until Tuesday. I will also need to stop at the British Museum sometime.
If I am up to it, I’ll get a bite in town for supper, depending on my energy reserves by then.
You can text me 07501852559. I am using my wonderful old Motorola Razr for the UK vodafone chip. It isn’t very smart, so you have to say who you are. Don’t send mms, however. Texts only, please.
I am having a devil of a time with the iPhone app for WordPress. I’ll do my best to post updates, in case a flash blognic develops.

I am at the National Gallery and will now enjoy Canaletto et al.

Taking a pint of ale at 7 Dials and using free wifi.
I am glad you are feeling somewhat better. I used to live directly across from the Natural History Museum, not too far from the V and A. That area is my old stomping grounds and I love West Kensington. Stay warm and drink hot tea for your health.
I decided against a too swift trip to the V and A. I am wandering around near Covent Garden for a fe lw minutes of people watching before either finding a place to settle or heading to the underground.
pint time
Perhaps I shall walk to Fortnum & Mason to look at pudding basins.
Hey, nice ‘pub’ photo, Father Z!
Hope you’re feeling better….is there a British version of chicken soup that you can have to beat whatever you’re suffering from?
Get well Fr. Z!
I don’t care for the WordPress app for iPhone/ iPad, it leaves a lot to be desired.
Glad you’re feeling better. There’s a lot of stuff going around.
Mazel Tov on your improved fettle, Father.
The Canaletto exhibition was beautiful, and so informative. I never knew about his almost-but not-quite-as-talented nephew, Bellotto. I just visited it on the spur of the moment, having admired the great poster advertising it I saw in the Underground. Got a lovely poster in the shop which I’m arranging to get framed.
