All Keyed Up

Well, here we are, back in Brexitland for Christmas festivities, but the point of this post is to log our excellent time at the evening Ceremony of the Keys at the Tower of London courtesy of our Daughter and Son in Law.




This was a great chance to see the ceremony that's been going on every night for over 700 years, hear some of the history again and, thanks to the invite procured for us, have a couple of G&T's in the Keys bar, run by and for the Yeoman Warders; a tie is essential wear for gentlemen but, even so, I wear one too. Anyway, I have to keep up with the sartorial elegance of my dear family. No photos allowed and, in any event, Look up London does the description better than I can, so follow this LINK for more info.

What a privilege! Wonderful. Thanks to all.

Malaga Lights Revisited (again)

Our annual trip to the Malaga (Christmas) Lights takes different forms; this year we travel by Alsa Bus with friends for what turns out to be a brilliant evening taking in a rooftop bar, tapas, the lights and general, well, fun.

From the moment these guys get on the bus we realise this could be a fun evening...
