Winter Wonderland is the annual huge outdoor festival which has a funfair, ice rink and German market all rolled into one with a mini railway, hundreds of food stalls and a giant snowman thrown in. It's great and was absolutely full of families having a wonderful time. We couldn't face the fast, swirly and vertically dropping fair rides but were deafened by the screams to know just what a lucky escape we'd had!
London looks beautiful at this time of year will all the Christmas lights in the streets and shop windows. I've posted in a few photos which show you the classic approach of Fortnum and Mason's where they have recreated some of the old masters. Carnaby Street is up to its usual high standard and the capture a great sense of fun which some other areas miss and this year they have a space man and planet theme - no idea why but it looks great! So here's a whole bunch of photos so you can feel you are here.....

A good week for lovely lunches with a long session at Bar Boulud (from Daniel Boulud) in the Mandarin Oriental, Knightsbridge where the star was the pot of freshly cooked mini Madeleines, ah, simple pleasures.... Another recommendation is Seven Park Place by William Drabble, part of the St James Hotel where the star was the lobster tortellini.
We have more snow on the way but I hope to have plenty to report next week.
Bye for now,
Sue
