Second day in London today. This time, meeting with a friend and colleague from a few years ago and discussing plans for a project. I really don’t want to write too much about it at the moment. I don’t think that it is super-secret, but it’s not for me to be writing about it here yet. I’ll wait until I see it elsewhere before talking about it more.

However, there was a lot of walking. Lorna and I were out walking in Aylesbury shortly after 7am — getting that daily walk done before catching the train into London.

I arrived at London at 9am – with a few hours spare before my meeting at midday. So I spent some time at the McDonalds on Baker Street, sipping coffee and using their wifi, before walking over to Lancaster Gate. After a couple of hours there, we walked back over to Marble Arch, got some food, schemed more and then headed out to a Starbucks just by Portman Square (where we had worked back in 2000). Then off to The Barley Mow pub to round off the day with a pint.

Then a walk back to Euston Station before my late late train back to The Beautiful North.

It was all good, exciting stuff which could get very interesting over the next few weeks and months.
