Siw and Olav Staying for a Long Weekend

We had Siw and Olav staying for a long weekend. We managed to pack in quite a lot! On Friday we went up to London for a late lunch in Lido in Chinatown before a couple of drinks on the way home in O'Neills in Wardour Street then at The Great Spoon in Ilford. On Saturday I took Olav to see Hornchurch win 2-1 over Hampton and Richmond before dinner at The Windmill (we got a free pint for the walk courtesy of last week's Beer festival). On Sunday we went for a long walk over Hainault Country Park. On Monday we went up town to The Garden at 120, but plans were interuppted by a fall Mum had at home. One Tuesday we went to Valentine's Park before a Fish and Chip dinner at The George and Dragon in Wanstead. A few photos from the weekend are below, the rest are here:
