Lots of bedraggled, soaked through River Pageant participants on the road under our windows. Got wet myself when going on the balcony quickly, abandoned that idea straight away - taking pictures through windows works just as well.

that was quite honestly one of the most boring things I have ever borne witness to.

At least they have the concert tommorrow to right the matter.

I like things like that. And I love the river. Watching snooker on TV - now THAT's boring.

Woo! Three Duck Tours vehicles just came up the mooring! I went on one once, they are flipping cool, you can use them in the river and on land.

yes, why do they watch snooker?

its just odd.


Cant decide whether to blag my way into Snow White tonight with a LOL ticket. It would be wrong. but it would be wrong for me to watch a Cyrus movie at my age too.

I am so stupid. I left work and arrived at Bermondsey thinking "well it's raining too much, I'm just gonna head home". Once home I turned on the TV and saw the Royal Family at Tower Bridge... which is literally 5min walk from my place. So I decided to go there and arrived when the queen left. HA.
But still, it was quite nice, even though cold and wet. Yes, it's boring but it's a thing we see once in a lifetime so I figured I would rather go there instead of watching on TV what was happening 5min from home - and I managed to took a picture of the Queen...:
