Tick Tock Ticking Off
What an eventful day! Although the weather was overcast, with a midday start and a farely easy drive into town, Tick Tock 2 assembled outside the Rowing Club at Putney Bridge. None of the participants were as brave as one lonely oarsman, who looked half frozen in his shorts.
The plan was to drive around the more famous sites in London and snatch a few pictures, but little did we know that we were being 'watched'. After a spritely drive around Grosvenor Square (several times) group made its way towards the London Eye, only to be pounced on by several armed units of the Westminster police whilst on a busy roundabout. It appears that the sight on 6 minis driving around the square where several Embassys are located, drew the attention of the CCTV operators.
After a good 'ticking' off the group were allowed to carry on, although we were exceptionally careful not to draw any attention again.
The 'run' continued but eventually the weather did take a turn for the worse but just in time for us to have a great meal at the "Lots Road" pub. Including 2 desserts for Harpo who couldn't resist the Ginger Ice Cream and the charms of the beautiful Swedish waitress.
