Just back from a nice karaoke evening at the O2 Arena in London's Docklands. Actually it was Paul McCartney in concert ... but it was actually a 20,000 strong sing-a-long which was actually quite good fun!

ANYWAY - greetings from Suite 712 at The Four Seasons in Canary Wharf. It's the Presidential Suite which is completely wasted on me as I arrived at 6 pm and leave at 6 am tomorrow! Such a shame ... it's so comfy and the views are fabulous ... THANK YOU MICHAEL!

It's been a long day as the weather has been so bad.

First stop - The Four Seasons, Hampshire with Claire Blackshaw - PR there. The setting of this property is magnificent ... in the country ... and on a day like today - snow, snow and snow - it's quite a picture. I love Claire --- she is passionate about travel and that works for me! This was Darling Jen's first look at Hampshire and she was impressed.

Next stop - Canary Wharf ... hmmmm ... homely City of London hotel ... smells so good ....

SO - the concert. We were VERY lucky as we were in a box ... with food & drink galore! The show was around 2 hours & 45 minutes and even though I am not a fan of the Beatles or McCartney (save Frog Chorus and Mary Had a Little Lamb) it was a VERY decent start to Xmas! The highlight for me was Mull of Kintyre with a line of bagpipers ... For Jen, the highlight was the ENTIRE show ... which was rather "fab"! THANK YOU RUPLI ... !

Back home tomorrow and sadly Jen is back to Texas ... I am going to miss her ...
