Spent a few nights in London training for work, took my camera just in case. My room was on the 11th floor, so saw some nice sunrise/sunsets.

Most of the museums were closed once I finished training each day so could only take photos from the outside at night on 2 days.  One day we did finish a bit early so while most of the delegates headed to a pub I headed to the museums but still only had an hour to explore. They don’t make buildings like this anymore

Made another trip to London the following week, so had another extended walk to my destination.

I spent a day in the country, this was the closest house I could see 

Spent the day surrounded by excitable dogs, curious cats and hard working horses.  Never did see the cat called Houdini though :)

Having lived in a major town the best part of my life I’d also never seen so many house martins and jackdaws before and I’ve just discovered how soft the skin on a horses nose is, I normally don’t get too close to animals bigger than me.

Family guinea pig Gizmo was running around in his indoor pen when I sat near him he tried to lick my leg, hands, toes, anything he could find.  He gave up and decided to lick my shorts!

Licking my shorts

He also lost his balance when having a clean and completely rolled over.  Only blurry pictures available

I fell over :(

I’ve had to visit a few sites in the south of England for work so decided to take my camera along and take a few photos, walking about the towns.
