Provence Tayl's

We have just returned from a weekend in Blighty.The first this year. We arrived in cool temperatures last Thursday and stayed with Martin - (known to many of you!) we went for a great meal at the Gurkha Kitchen in Reigate - serving lovely Curries something we do miss in France;

Friday it was up to London where we stayed in Canary Wharf, we lunched at Gordon Ramsey's pub ' the Narrow' then walked our socks off!! Met Richard for his 22nd birthday - Yes 22! went to one of his haunts 'Jewell' in Leicester Square then dinner at No 1 Leicester Square where these picture were taken - its on the 7th floor.






Wow how London is buzzing - its an extraordinary contrast to where we now live!
Saturday after exploring Canary Wharf we headed down to Surrey for a little retail therapy! of course a beer and then out to a 50th Birthday party.

Sunday after further retail experiences we took in the a good British Pint by the River then a BBQ with Friends Sunday evening rounding off a very pleasant weekend.

We returned home to Provence to be greeted by rain - hence this picture of the rainbow that was shining ! seems it was a good weekend to be away!





Like many places our weather is far from normal but thankfully the last two days have been fabulous, hot, sunny and abt 33 degrees - that is one of the many reasons we moved here!
