I finally caught up on some sleep and feel great.
Spent morning on skype with family and friends then sitting outside in the sun working on the blog. The UK is having fabulous weather at the moment, it reached a top of 24c today and I loved it.
Re-packed the bag as heading into London for a couple of days then from there to Warrington (up north near Manchester) for Easter.
Caught public transport to London, first time here since I left in Nov 1993 - am really excited to be back.
Met my friend Al at her work to get the keys to her apartment in Islington (as she was going out for the night). It is a balmy evening and the Poms (and everyone else), are out enjoying it either drinking outside the pubs or sitting in parks.
My brother had suggested a place to eat in Islington (Ottolenghi) so I went straight there for dinner. They have amazing salads and deserts, amongst other things - I had a roasted sweet potato salad with seeds, spring onions, nuts, chilli, mint and burnt aubergine yoghurt. It was lovely, served with bread and washed down with a crisp white wine - what a difference from tagine and cous cous. I am craving a mint tea though!!
