'This is a District Line train to Plaistow'

---

That's the message we hear almost every time we get on the Tube to go in to town!

Today is our last day in London for the time being, we are leaving for Paris in the morning on the first day of our Grand European tour! Very exciting!

We thought you might like to have a look at some of the things we have been up to in our travels, more news will follow as it happens.

Claire would like to tell everyone that she was right royally cheesed off this morning when some rude soul went in to the laundry just after her, removed our load of wet washing from the dryer and replaced it with his own, taking full advantage of our dryer token which had already been inserted. After sitting around waiting for the dryer to finish for an hour she got suspicious and went in to check. Upon finding rude soul's clothes in the dryer, she closed the door and didn't press the start button again, then marched downstairs to report the situation and get another dryer token! Justice prevailed as our washing is now clean and dry and as far as we know, rude soul's is still sitting half-dry in the dryer!

Lots of love to all,
Claire and Sarah xxx

Except this is not London Bridge, it is Tower Bridge, commonly confused
