Goodbye London!

Here we are waiting to take off on our flight from Gatwick to Glasgow. It should have taken off a couple of minutes ago but it came in late (from Basel) and people are still boarding. This gives me time to write a quick blog post. Our last day in London has been very pleasant. We went for a tour of the Royal Courts of Justice with Cat; unfortunately Ally was too busy at work to join us, he had hoped to take a half day of holiday. The tour was very interesting although it was interrupted by one of the tour members fainting - luckily one of the duty police officers outside one of the court rooms caught her before she hit the floor. We had lunch in a wee Pret A Manger then Cat went off to view a flat and we headed to Piccadilly where we bought tea and chocolates in Fortnum and Masons and browsed in Waterstones before taking the tube back to St Paul’s. We had time for a last quick drink in Madison. Ally’s new office is right beside St Paul’s so we had a quick look over there from the roof terrace but we couldn’t see him at any of the windows! Soon it was time to retrieve our case from the Premier Inn and to take the train from Farringdon Station to Gatwick Airport.
