Busy, Busy, Busy!!!!

Hi all, sorry I haven't been around again, but I have just had the most fantastic weekend playing host to some friends from Italy for the weekend!!

They arrived on Friday and were staying till Sunday, so we had no time to waste!!!!

Friday was spent on a whistle stop tour of London!!


We went to the Tower of London, London Eye, Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Horse Guards Parade, Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery!!!! Phew!!!




On Saturday the men went to the Imperial War Museum Duxford for the day, which was thoroughly enjoyed by them, and the ladies spent an enjoyable (if not hectic) few hours in Harrods!!!

Sunday was spent more leisurely with us all enjoying a typical Christmas lunch together before our friends left for the airport!!

That's it for now!!


Time to visit my lovely blog friends!!!

Kindest wishes and love

The Perth Mint


Today we decided to take a look at The Perth Mint





It stands right in the centre of Perth and is open for visits! Visitors are given a little of the history of the mint and of the gold rush that happened in Western Australia!!!

During the tour of the mint it is possible to see a gold ingot being made!! The same gold can be melted down and made into an ingot every day for twenty years without losing any volume!!!!!

Not bad eh!!!

Kindest wishes and love
