Full English breakfast (veggie) with cereal, tea and juice for a fiver at the hostel. Pretty unbeatable in this part of town, bang in the centre of the City of London. I can see I'm going to need to do a lot of walking here. Got to the City Business Library when it opened at 9.30. Free WiFi and electricity sockets all over the place - a teleworker's dream.

Lovely London!
... The buildings around London are just beautiful...I really enjoyed looking at them all and learning a little of their history.
We went to "Mamamia" at West End last night - it was FANTASTIC!!! Even Don, who never comes to the Cairns Choral Society productions with me enjoyed it!
It's VERY cold here...It's funny seeing the trees beginning to bloom (it's spring) when it is so FREEZING!!! ...
