I went down to London for the day. Arrived at 10 to be met by Rowan. We saw her new flat (rented) right near the Hope & Anchor in Islington. It looks great from the outside (not moved in yet). Then we went on a good walkabout before having lunch at the Tamil Prince by the canal. Next was walk through the city (and the postman's park) over the wobbly bridge to the Tate Modern. Only to find that the exhibition we were going to see (80s photography) was on at the Tate Britain. So we went on a 45 minute walk / dash to Millbank and got there in time. A powerful group of photographs from a number of photographers, plenty on the Thatcher years, Rock against Racism etc. Good to share the viewing with Rowan who has an interest in photography too. Then we got the tube back to Islington where we met up with Rob & Kath for a drink / snack / chat. 20.00 train home. A good day.
