London

A big welcome to my blog, thanks for dropping by

On my way to Turkey I stayed in London for a very short visit. It was great to be back, see some close friends and London too. It was very cold! I went from 30 centigrade degrees in Singapore to 3! Ouch! It even snowed on me! Here I am with Jen, our dear friend in London looking as cold as I felt!

I hope you enjoy the photos....it was hard to keep the camera still, I was shaking so much...

I am leaving for a holiday in New Zealand next weekend so it will be 3 weeks before I upload again. Do come back then

love

Alan
