    We woke to a grey wet day, but that didn't matter. Got various trains into town again. Found Abbey Road and saw the famous cross walk. Then onto Lord's Cricket Ground for our tour. Very interesting and lovely place. It was awesome to walk in the same corridors and rooms as the legends. We had a very delicious lunch at Lord's Tavern. Well worth the effort. Following that we got on another train to see Churchill's War Rooms. A long line but we got in quite easily. Another very interesting place. Along with the Churchill's Museum were the underground War Rooms, Map Room, accommodation, kitchen. It would have been quite intense at the time.
    From there we had tea in a pub at Liverpool St, then caught the train home. We were held up for a bit because of a trespasser on the track further up. We eventually got to our stop, but not after being thoroughly entertained by the train driver's announcement about 'the bloke should be arrested soon, but in the meantime, only busses further up.'
