Off to visit the Queen.

Tuesday 15th High lane StockportUp early today as we are off to London to see the Queen. Steve is taking us to Disley station. Pauline has a previous appointment so cannot come. We say a teary goodbye to Pauline who has been a wonderfull host along with the fun loving Steve who has kept us thoroughly amused and entertained during our stay with them.We thank them sincerly for opening their lovely home to us along with Rusty the dog and L.C. the cat. L.C. is short for little cat. Also the grey Squirrels down the back garden.After further goodbyes to Steve at the station we enjoy a pleasent ride to Manchester Piccadilly station where we board a Virgin train to Euston station London. A change to the tube at Euston sees us arrived with minimal fuss at Paddington. It is here that we have a small amount of trouble finding our hotel. After finding it we check in and are given a beautiful room on the third floor,A bit of a climb but ok. Our room has a mini kitchen and we take advantage buying the ingredients to prepare our breakfasts.That afternoon was spent walking the local area and we had dinner in a typical English pub.Then it was back to the hotel to enjoy a bottle of red and a welcome sleep.Crackers the Eagle.
