Extra pre birthday surprise

Post by kpnuts »

Hi all well my soon to be wife and our best friends took me to London for a weekend of sight seeing(I've always wanted to do the London open top bus tour so for my 60th they went all out) so we did the open top bus tour we saw the tower of London and the crown jewels we went on the London eye and went in Madame tussauds.
Today we went for afternoon tea and a cruise on the Thames.
I have an amazing missus and fantastic friends, I'm such a lucky bloke.

Awww man! I wish I'd known, I could have come and said hello. At one point you were 3 minutes walk away from my place of work!

You can the see the roof of my office in your last photo.

Whereabouts are you normally 'based' KP?

Great! Do you go to the Southern Expo in Hornchurch Essex (usually in March). If so, see you there next year mate! Not too far for either of us.

Happy 60th birthday to you! My 60th is the 21st, unfortunately we won't be visiting London to celebrate, but that's ok. We visited England in 2003 and had a great time.
