The other capital

Spent a fine afternoon wandering the streets of London, looking for gold paving and humming Ralph McTell songs to myself. Unsurprisingly, nobody approached me.

Grayson Perry at the Portrait Gallery was good, but better was the Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize. Inspiring images.

Then I was whisked back to the palace in the official limo. She might be getting on a bit, but Liz still knows how to treat her fellow royals when they drop in for the weekend.
