Sparkling

A freezing cold start to the day, but it was a nice walk from the hotel to Paddington over the canal.

I had a solid day on writing an award submission and gathering the evidence. I've broken the back of it now.

My young padawan and I wandered up to Spitalfields Market for lunch. There were loads of street food places. She had a spicy Thai noodle vegan dish and I had a toasted cheese sandwich with tomato soup dip, by heck it was good. A very good idea from my young padawan to check it out.

In the afternoon I think the both of us were feeling sleepy after the food. Lol! So for her one-to-one we had a walk and talk. We had a really good chat and plenty of laughs. We ended up in the Royal Exchange (see extra), so we both had a glass of sparkling tea from the Fortnum and Masons bar there. I think I've converted her and I don't think it will be our last visit there. Lol!

It's been great to see my young padawan so relaxed this week after a stressful couple of months for her.

No problems on the train home, all went well.

Today I am thankful for:

1.  Yummy food at Spitalfields Market
2.  A posh one-to-one with my young padawan in the Royal Exchange
