So we’ve finally embarked on the road out of Lockdown. It’s been a long time coming since Christmas was cancelled on December 20th. On April 12 (so that’s nearly four months of not being able to do anything except go to the supermarket or go for a walk) non-essential shops and restaurants opened up. But […]

A Docklands day out with lunch at The Ivy in the Park
In my time in London I’ve worked in all corners of the city. Lucky me to have had the opportunity.

Today’s Covid news is more bad news with Nightingale hospitals being mobilised again and more stringent rules imminent. It’s a strange and somewhat scary time we’re […]
