We went along to the opera last night Cav & Pag at the Coliseum in St Martin's Lane. Really good evening. The performance was incredible, very emotional because both of the operas are really sad. The Coliseum is wonderful though. Very stately. All in all a great night out.
This weekend was Open House weekend, where you can gain free access to interstesting buildings even private homes. We went along to one of those in the afternoon. An architect's house called Loth House. Quite something, it is just up the road from St Pancras International in a quiet little street. His office is in the basement of his own home and he has a small garden out back with a lovely little waterfall. It was a really cool space.
Of course, we were so close to St Pancras we just had to head down there to have some champagne before going out. The champagne bar is really cool actually, you're right in the thick of things. It reminds you of the time when rail travel was the upper class way to travel. I recommend spending half an hour in there, you really are watching the world go by.
Fadin' out...
