It was her pose that got me. Plus the fact that those must be the most photographed birds in London - pelicans in St James's Park. Crowds photographing them.

A hot sunny day up town. The boy took his press pass and disappeared into the behind the scenes world of the Evening Standard's reading festival. He me Rupert Everett, the children's laureate and the voice of the Dalek's.

We slid gently round the National Gallery at such a gentle pace that I felt reconciled to the place again. Ate lunch and sat on a park bench with the newspaper.

Still hot outside the pub at 8pm and open air dining at 10. Fab.
