London and Jersey

The hype of the Royal wedding was all over the Uk [some of the most kitch sourveniors imaginable have been made] even at the races which was a great day but not in a finanacial sense.Met Bob in London great to see him and we had a couple of days doing the tower etc only problem was he was not hthat mobile after having a fight with ground after falling off a skate board.

Went to jersy and caught up with Michael and Ema Kenny-Herbert who I had not seen for 25 years or so fabulous place ids Jersey and the we were looked after brilliantly and was a very good time had by all.
