Tuesday 11th November- A day out in London

Our plan for the day was to take the train to Waterloo and then the bus to Towr of London to see the poppies. Anyway we made it to Weybridge Station only to find the tickets that were purchased online did not work for the very simple reason that I has used the wrong date, Great start Groves..

We arrived at Waterloo and found the right bus but due to the heavy traffic a journey which should have taken 40 minutes tool almost double and so we arrived to late for the planned service. However there were still plenty of people around and we are able to get some good photos of the poppies.

After that back to the bus and on to Soho where we planned to eat at the Tokyo restaurant where you can get good Japanese food at a reasonable price and typical Japan style, no tipping!.

WE then did some wandering around town and slowly headed to the Waterloo Imax where we were due to see film called 'Interstellar'  which was supposed to be very good. Anyway I poked my credit card in the machine only to find that it would not find our tickets and so after complaining at the ticket desk only to find I had booked it at the Natural History Museum Imax Cinema, how that happened I do not know anyway we were now to late to get to Kensington and so just took the train home. Great booking clerk Mr Groves... will watch in future as I reckon it was the computers
fault and not mine.
