A visit to London would not be complete without a drink in the Beaten Docket, Cricklewood. My brother, Ray, is the salt to my pepper as he has a shock of white hair despite being my junior by 17 months! This is true of our personalties too!!

Although I potted up a number of plants for this visit nonetheless Ray insisted we go to B&Q to buy a couple of cherry tomato plants. Fortunately, and miraculously it is not raining so I have garden work to do this afternoon.
