Use your imagination

No photos today.

When returning from breakfast, we couldn't get into our room. The swipe card didn't work, even after the receptionist reprogrammed the card (to the wrong room number) and then reprogrammed the card (to the right room number) and came to check the door, then called the weilder of the toolbox to help. But that's not why we have no photos today.

We waited on Bayswater station. The platform sign refused to tell us about the trains we wanted. It refused for about fifteen minutes. We waited. Eventually the sign got over its fixation with trains for other lines and told us what we wanted to know. But that's not why we have no photos today.

About a station before Westminster (where we planned to get off and walk to where the horse guards would be) Lyn wondered where I had the camera, since she couldn't see the camera bag on me. Of course, I had the camera sitting safely in our room, conveniently placed to be picked up and taken out. That's why we have no photos today.

We changed our plan for the day: 1. buy tickets for Spamalot and The Mousetrap; 2. wander along Oxford street and look at the shops; 3. catch a bus to Portobello road and look at the market and shops.

Tube delays hit us again when we tried to get to the theatre to see Spamalot this evening. We got there wet and about one minute before the start. The show was fantastic.
