Another Day, another Farmer's Market

So I'm a day late on this one - I meant to post yesterday. Well, Sunday got away from me. So here we are on Monday night.

The weather in London has been freakishly nice; sunny and hot! It made for more fun Sunday. I got up early to check out the local church. It's a beautiful place just a block away, called St. James. I accidentally ende dup at a mass with no music which was kind of boring, but it was still a really beautiful church and nice to see!

I then got to enjoy another farmers market - this one RIGHT in front of the building. Granted it was kind of puny in comparison to the Borough market but it was nice to watch from the sitting room! I did pass through, and boy the Brits like cabbage and rhubarb!

I then walked up to the Regent's Garden. I'd never been there before and it reminded me a bit of Prospect Park in Bklyn. I don't have any pics cuz I didn't bring the camera (sorry), but it is a really pretty park that I will look forward to spending more time in!

I then spent the afternoon doing some work, but kept getting distracted by the pub across the way deeply into the Premiereship Footbal finals (Manchester United won the 10th championship in 16 years! We think the Pats are a dynasty!!)

I haven't been to this pub yet but I am intrigued by a local british pub with a french champagne awning out front . . . AND it's in visible distance from the flat. So, I'll be there soon enough!!

I am getting geared up for lots of work these days, but enjoying the sights and sounds of the neighborhood are making up for the busy work and missing my Doebs!!

Sounds like a good time was had by all, but people are going to start thinking you have a drinking problem when all you worry about is champagne... Oh, wait. Everyone already KNOWS you have such a problem... Hee hee.
