Exactly one month from today, this glorious @wabbey will be the stage for the coronation of King Charles III. So fortunate and privileged to be able to guide in this historic building
#saveoursimpsons We are heartbroken to announce that Simpson's Tavern, Londons oldest Chophouse has been forced to close through the cynical actions of our landlord (Tavor Holdings Ltd, incorporated in Bemuda) and their agents (Hartnell Taylor Cook Ltd). Crowdfunding starts today
City pubs at their best. Not only is this the site of Shakespeare's house, but the name Cockpit comes from an old pastime of having rival cockerels fight against each other for the amusement of onlookers. And this pub still has the balcony from where you could watch this pastime
What a weekend that was! Full of fun, pageantry, pomp and circumstance, from flypasts and street parties to pageantries and gun salutes. Now ready to gallop into a new week. Have a good one all 😊
The bursting colourful display of azaleas and rhododendrons at the Isabella Plantation in Richmond Park is really quite something. If you get a chance this weekend, do go, it’s a delight, and the grand puppies @florandpip throughly agree 🌸🌸. Happy Friday
@cgledhill That’s interesting, I’ll look into that, thank you 😊. But I know that the original design for the telephone box was modelled on Sir John Soanes’s wife’s tomb, and that tomb in the churchyard of The Old St Pancras church.
Nothing sets you up better for a new day than a leaning 18 window panel K6 kiosk with a Tudor Crown doubling up as its ventilation. Hurray for street furniture and hurray May, my favourite month ☀️
Wisteria blooming,and London really shows off. It was first introduced to Britain in 1816 by John Reeves who was the Chief Inspector of Tea at Canton, and they came as cuttings from a plant growing in the garden of a Chinese merchant in Canton. Happy Monday 🌷
Happy St George’s Day. What can be better than when your tour gets hijacked by this fantastic group of Morris Dancers, on St George’s Day!The one and only #ewellmorrismen were so brilliant and they performed a special Morris Jig just for us 🥰
The spring in London is truly the best 🌸. #albertmemorial framed by the stunning cherry blossoms and Flora the grand puppy strutting her stuff on the carpet of fallen petals 🥰🥰
