A huge day of walking today. We started with a quick brekky and an early exit so that we could be at Buckingham palace by 10am. Rod, Dave, Corinne and Brendan met Neil outside the palace. We were thoroughly security checked and then spent a very nice two hours wandering through the queen's house, looking at all her stuff. The audio tour was extremely good and we all learnt a lot. Afterwards we walked towards Mayfair and met up with darra, trudy and Nicole for f...

Next door was a shopping area with lots of merchandise and after a quick...
