We’re still in London and are spending the day with Harry. Not the royal Harry, the important one - Harry Potter.

Both Veronica and I have been fortunate to spend considerable amounts of time in London during periods of our lives when it can be argued is the best time to be there. Far too high a percentage of our incomes were spent on having a good time and we both have amazing memories associated with it. There’s no way we can recreate those, nor would we want to now, but there were a couple of places where it would almost be sacrilege to not go and revisit with the kids.

We’ve made it to London and all of the travelling Sowerbys have come with different objectives. Veronica’s here to spend some quality time with her brother and get some “London closure” (whatever that means). Annabelle and Emily are most definitely here for the Harry Potter Warner Brothers’ Tour. As for me, I’m here for the weather. From the get go I get exactly the type of weather I expected. When it wasn’t raining, it was grey, cold and windy. Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, it does not.
