    I know I haven’t been to church in a while, but two services in ONE day, takes the cake.

    We set out to go the Choral Matins in St Paul’s and it was stupendous! A small gathering considering how many people fit in there for Diana’s wedding.

    I’ve always wanted to go to Westminster Abbey to visit all the famous people buried there. Just so happens on Sunday there are no visitors only those who are attending a service may enter. So down we were for another service. This time a communion one where I did battle with the communion minister to let me dip the ‘wafer’ in the wine instead of sipping out of the cup (covid). I lost. Keep my fingers crossed for divine intervention and I remain a Novid!!

    All that churching was exhausting! Back to the hotel for a little nap.

    Early dinner at Gordon Ramsay’s restaurant at the Savoy. Treated ourselves to a nice bottle of champagne and had a delicious dinner. Photos capture the meal.

    Now on to packing to pick up our car at Gatwick airport and off to hit the road.
