London and House of Commons Visit

At the beginning of the month whilst down in London I met up with one of my Australian relatives John, a liturgical teacher and songwriter from Sydney plus his mum Shirley. I had arranged with our local MP, Greg Mulholland for a tour for us round the Houses of Parliament which was extremely interesting. We also had tea out on the terrace overlooking the Thames.

After the tour I had a meeting down by the London Eye and then met up with John and his family again near Covent Garden before catching the train home.


Below are pictures from the day.
