I'm halfway along her trunk now so she'll soon be ready to trumpety trump.
I haven't done any knitting for a few days so my cardigan is no further on.
Dementia: Innovation
Last week I had to tear myself away from the garden and head into London again to speak at the
Dementia:innovation conference. This was my second sortie into the City of London in as many weeks and it was interesting to see why caught my eye this time.
I had to leave home at silly o'clock in order give myself plenty of time as the venue was a good 25 minute walk away. I could have taken the tube but I'd rather walk and take in my surroundings.

What a strange blob on the right hand side. That's the Monument to the 'great fire of London' and if you click on the link you'll find photo without a giant black blob! I cleaned my lens later but didn't spot it at the time. |

The tip of the Gherkin peeping out over the buildings |
My route took me right through the heart of the City of London, along
Lombard Street, which I used to know well, then past the road named
London Wall (with apologies for the dark blob!) until I reached my destination.
