530 Steps and the Killer Queen

We climbed St. Paul's Cathedral yesterday - 530 steps to the lantern, fortunately in three stages so we could catch our breath and stretch our calves. London seems to be booming with construction as there were cranes everywhere on all horizons - picture to follow at some point - though not of the inside of the cathedral as this was forbidden :-(

I managed to seriously partake of the food of my childhood yesterday - meals of fish 'n' chips with Guinness, bangers and mash, and treacle pudding and custard for a finale. I might even have converted Alexis on the treacle pud (wicked, evil laughter here).

We finished the evening at the theatre again, with the sell-out show the critics love to hate, We Will Rock You (UK version!). A delightfully silly musical, with over-the-top wigs and a hokey storyline - but all of the Queen music played live by a fantastic band. We were, indeed, the Champions!
