🙂 The striking Post Office Tower or BT Tower looms over Fitzrovia
🌼 Opened in 1965, it rises 177m and was the highest building in the UK until 1980 (when the Natwest tower opened)
🙂 Designed to relay microwave signals , it also had a revolving
restaurant which took 22 minutes to rotate giving an uninterrupted 360 view over London
🙂 It was sold in 2024 to MCR Hotels for £275 million
💛 I can’t wait to see what they do with it 🙂

🙂 What a treat to get close up to the giraffes
🦒🦒 As part of The Giraffe Keeper Experience, I got to muck out their house, refill their feeding balls & hand feed them cabbage leaves
🦒 Such magnificent, elegant animals
🦒🙂 The experience taught me so much about these creatures & brought a huge smile to the face of everyone there
🙂 This was just one of the experiences you can book at - what a fabulous place

🌼 If you have not visited the recently reburbished National Gallery, then go 🙂
⭐️ What a fabulous way to spend some time - lose yourself in sublime art - and for free
🌼 With a small collection of paintings two hundred years ago, it is now home to over 2,000 pieces of art 🙂
⭐️ From 12th century to 1900 the gallery showcases masterpieces from many nations and there is truly a painting for everyone 🙂
⭐️ Anyone want to share their favourite?

☀️☀️Am enjoying a little moment on one of the distinctive stripy deckchairs in The Green Park - or should that be The Brown Park 😉
🙂 My poor clients are so jet-lagged they missed their alarm - so am taking this time to people watch & see London from a different angle 🙂

🙂 What better than sculpture in the open air - and here is Locking Pieces by Henry Moore
🙂 This twisty two-piece has sat on the Thames Embankment since 1968 and is one of Moore’s most famous works. The late sculptor cited multiple inspirations for this piece, including skeletal structures and a pair of interlocking pebbles found in his garden.
🙂 This combined with the MI6 building across the river makes for an impressive view
🙂 Hope you like it 🙂

🌸 They were fabulous company
🌼 Thank you to & for making this happen

⭐️ Here is The Bridge of Aspiration linking The Royal Ballet School with The Royal Opera House
🙂 It’s always worth looking up!

🙂 If you are looking for a different London experience, come and visit this house - Dennis Severs House
👉🏼👉🏼 Scroll for context of location
🙂 Dennis Severs came to Spitalfields in 1979 and bought a derelict house saved by the Spitalfields Trust. He reconfigured it to tell the story of an imaginary Huguenot family who had lived there since it was built in 1724.

🙂 Dennis moved into 18 Folgate Street with a candle, a chamber pot and a bedroll – and the house became his life’s work.
⭐️ is a time-warp,open Saturdays & Sundays - and generally visits are done in total silence!
