Now that Seb's at nursery on a Friday I often find myself popping up to London for a break and that's exactly what I did today. I walked around the City a bit and marvelled at the Swiss Re building close up; I also took a bus ride to Hackney to see what all the fuss is about, thought it very 'urban' and caught a different bus back to central London again. I met Nick for lunch in the Civil Service Club, it's a much nicer place now it's been refurbished and the large television removed from the bar area. We sat in the corner and talked for ages until he had to return to work, but luckily he's off on Tuesday because us mighty Civil Servants are granted an extra two point five days off per annum, I suppose this makes up for the piss poor salary - who knows?
In the afternoon I had a mosey around the shops and bought Seb a rather natty duvet cover from Next which had colourful transport images on it. He loves it. I am now suffering the strains of In the Night Garden, a programme I thought he'd grown out of ages ago - sigh!
