Soeur | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 08:37 am  Hey Nancy! Wonderful to hear about your day! (It has been ages since I have been to alive performance and London really is the place to see the very best. Were the tickets expensive? Here (Toronto) good tickets to shows are around C$80.000) Looking forward to your return... |
Juju2bigdog | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 08:43 am  Nancy visits the queen! Way to go, Nancy. Glad you found a cheaper place to use the internet. I was starting to organize a bake sale to keep you in business.

Nancy091158 | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 10:21 am  lol JUJU...TICKETS WERE 35 pounds so roughly 48 dollars for stall or orchestra seats---but thats a group rate so its prob more expensive for others...i am now in covent garden using an internet cafe there... ;-) |
Moondance | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 10:43 am  LOL Juju ... between Willi's jello mold and maybe a couple of brownies we could raise some money Nancy, it sounds like you have a GREAT time! Met the Queen...whoohoo, you go girl! Roo would be proud! |

Moondance | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 11:00 am  Basil... I love it! Roo will probably forgive you pretty quick with a catnip mouse souvenir! |
Grod | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 12:38 pm  Nancy, it sounds like you are having a really good trip. I think it would be great to see you on the webcam. Can you post what time you will be on I will try catch you. Except, i don't know what you look like, can you give basic description so I can see youthen. I love London, been there many times. Which hotel are you staying at? I know London like a second home almost. Maybe I can give you some tips on some places close by. |
Tess | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 01:21 pm  Nancy, they showed Queen Elizabeth and all her pomp and circumstance on CNN this afternoon here. Was that you in the crowd?? I could have sworn I saw someone frantically waving at the camera.  |
Willi | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 01:42 pm  Westminster Abbey Virtual Tour (Once there, click On "Abbey Tour") http://www.westminster-abbey.org/ |
Willi | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 01:49 pm  This Web site has a few large pictures of Westminster Abbey. http://www.greatbuildings.com/buildings/Westminster_Abbey.html |
Nancy091158 | Sunday, April 22, 2001 - 11:19 am  lol tess probably---and my picture is in my profile..i am sooo tired tonight from stratford-on-avon and warwick castle i doubt i will get up to trafalgar square tonight..with the time difference (5 hours) it will prob be tooo late for most of you if i go over there in the morning tomorrow...(i.e. if i go at 8am it would be midnite for some of you on the west coast...) my flight home is at 4 pm but we leave the hotel at 1pmto get to heathrow by two my hotel is the Milleneum Gloucester Hotel which is on Gloucester Road (kensington area) right by the gloucester road underground.. ;-) |
Nancy091158 | Sunday, April 22, 2001 - 11:21 am  warwick castle was interesting...we saw some civil war reanctments---a jousting display...some falcom flying and a bald eagle flying demonstration as well ;-) |
Highlander | Sunday, April 22, 2001 - 11:47 am  Civil War? Sheech, which Civil war did they renact, lets see the Irish uprising, the Indian uprising, we could go on and on. Must have been a lot of acts in that play. |
Grod | Sunday, April 22, 2001 - 03:40 pm  Yes nancy, can understand busy, last days in London, i am most often busy. Would have been great to see you on webcam, a friend of mine did that from France, it was great. Maybe next time, I am sure you will want to go back to London. Millenium Glouchester, i think if memory serves me correctly it is a newer hotel. I have stayed at the Gainsborough twice before, a little cheaper, but closer to some of the areas i need to access. Glad you enjoyed your trip. |
Egbok77 | Sunday, April 22, 2001 - 04:11 pm  Nancy, I just finished reading this whole thread and it sounds like your trip to England was filled with a variety of experiences - even meeting HRH Basil. Thanks for taking the time to share your moments with us "across the pond". Welcome back!! |
Highlander | Sunday, April 22, 2001 - 04:13 pm  I wonder if HRC Basil isnt really dubya's cat who hopped a freighter. |
Egbok77 | Sunday, April 22, 2001 - 04:20 pm  LOL Highlander!! |
Nancy091158 | Monday, April 23, 2001 - 01:13 am  grod yes it is fairly new--and quite expensive but then with the tour its all included..they chose this hotel beacuse it is so close to the tube... ;-) |
