Discover the fascinating history of King’s Cross, one of the most successful regeneration projects in London, on this 90 minute guided walk.
200 years ago King’s Cross was a rather desolate place, marked by brick kilns, rubbish heaps and slums. The arrival of the Regents Canal and the railways changed the area forever: join Elena, accredited Camden and City Guide, to delve into its past - pioneering stations, splendid hotels and many historic buildings and structures which have been beautifully reimagined for 21st century living.

Think lamplighters are a thing of the past? Think again! Meet Aran, one of only three lamplighters left in London to look after around 1,300 old-school gas lamps that still light our streets. Aran reminded me proudly that gas street lights were first introduced in Pall Mall in 1812, the first in the world! Swipe to see Aron up his ladder changing the time setting of the pilot light to the earlier winter time of 4pm. My group of international tourists was delighted with this chance encounter, and so was I (can you tell?)

Dame Susan Langley, the 697th Lord Mayor of London, only the third woman in history to hold the post but the first to choose to be titled Lady Mayor of London. It was about time!
The first Lady Mayor’s Show was a riot of music, military bands, pomp and pageantry, crazy floats, beautiful horses and a noticeable presence of women. And not a drop of rain - that in itself is breaking with tradition!
I was delighted to be leading one of charity walks in support of the Lord Mayor’s Appeal organised by .

My first ever Frieze! One of the world’s most influential art fairs held in October in Regent’s Park. It started in 2003 and attracts over 60,000 visitors every year. Rather overwhelming due to its sheer size, but very impressive nonetheless. I would have treated myself to a Paula Rego or a Grayson Perry if I’d had the cash 🙂

A curious sight at Paternoster Square yesterday. The gorilla is part of ‘Wild about Babies’ a collection of bronze baby animals roaming the square. It’s the latest brainchild of artistic duo to draw attention and funds to the conservation of engendered animals.

Morning visit to the spectacular in Lincoln’s Inn Fields. An architectural tour de force. The candle-lit soirées in the Monk’s Parlour must have been really something.
