And then it was off to Jenny's in London via what we thought was the Tower of London.We were a bit taken back by the size of the Tower complex and what, in fact turned out to be several towers. And there was even one where Thomas Beauchamp, Earl of Warwick had been incarcerated a few hundred years back at the end of the 14th Century. Fancy one of my rellies doing something so bad that he had to be locked up in his own tower awaiting execution. Still, he was in good company with a number of other executions taking place on the grass common: like Lady Jane Grey, who also met her fate here. What we expected would be a morning took us most of the day (the Crown Jewels were a minor attraction!) before we made our way out, over the Tower Bridge had headed (on foot!) towards Waterloo. Distance got the better of us and even a gelato wasn't enough to get us there and we ended up catching a bus: Shelley's map reading skills found our way there (after some useless debate from the other half). Having finally arrived in Bonnington Square (where Jenny and husband Matthew live) we asked a 'local' for directions. Turned out he was a South African on holiday, but he knew enough to be able to head us in the right direction. We enjoyed Jenny and Matthew's hospitality as we shared her birthday and met an intersting friend of hers. An overnight stay and a rushed trip back to Liverpool Street Station the next day ended a very full and thoroughly enjoyable weekend. (Jenny recommended a visit to Sutton Hoo the following weekend and gave us a pass which would have expired had we not been able to use it.)
