London Trip 2023

Image
Down to London then, staying in an apartment in Hounslow while down here, it's not the Ritz but it's not a dump either. Comfortable sofa, comfortable bed too, few strange point that make 'Sweet Home' quirky, just wish I could park my car closer, will look in to that later! Explored the town part of Hounslow, saw where Sunrise Radio is located, and some fabulous places to eat and buy food and other bits. The Christmas tree in the town lacks something, but it's an Asian / multi cultural area, with various faiths about, so let the local authority off on that one.  Had a good night's sleep, so off to another part of London, it's blue skies outside, but a bit on the chilly side. Here is a video of my short trip to London, also took some footage on a rather empty tube train heading to Baker Street on the Metropolitan line   https://youtu.be/FdpPLYAguqk?si=aRpuFd-vgjCnENC3 via    Question:  cheaper above or bellow ground? Answer: nothing in it really, just be car...

The Fun of booking.com

Oh the fun of booking somewhere in London for two friends to have some exploring time on booking.com Found what sounded like a really nice place, so booked it. Then read more of the reviews only to find one review saying about it not being two bedrooms! I messaged the owner and clarified this, and it turns out booking.com described their property wrongly. I thought it was down to the owner of the accommodation to describe their own property. Can't they fix the listing? if it's a flaw in the booking.com site then it throws in to doubt how good booking.com actually is to book through! At least the property owner is being clear about this, so thumbs up to them.
