Yesterday, I picked up Marge from Heathrow airport, bright and shiny early!
We grabbed a £5.50 buffet lunch at Cafe Saffron around the corner and went off to explore London! We pretty much just walked around Covent Garden, the banks of the Thames, and Fleet Street. It was nice! We got cupcakes from Bea's of Bloomsbury (best cupcakes ever?) and chips from the Rock and Sole Plaice (best fish n chips in London).
We headed back in the early afternoon, as we were both rather tired, and in the evening, we had the most pretentious dinner. I made lambchops and spinach, we had paté on little slivers of toasted baguette, a nice Bordeaux red wine pairing, and a chocolate pud.
Abbey's been working furiously on a paper, but she stopped to come by to meet Marge (and probably to laugh at us, sprawled out on the floor with our classy dinner -- I don't really have a table and there wasn't enough desk space for two).
Anyways, Marge and I are going to Portsmouth today and the Camden Market on Sunday. I'm not sure when I'll be able to post again, but I will try to get some updates and photos up when possible!

You could spread a nice white starched tablecloth on the floor for your next elegant meal. Glad to hear Marge made it safely. Sounds like you guys are having fun. Look forward to i-Chatting some time soon now that we're home.
