As you can see from the photos I had a fabulously London-centric April and feel that I’ve really re-connected with the city and what it has to offer. I can get so head up out here in the ‘burbs with mummy duties and daily chores that I forget how good it is to go out and explore what’s just a short train ride away.

So, I decided to take the kids to the Tate Modern for a day out and they loved running around the huge turbine hall. They didn’t get why there were ropes around the ‘doggie poopie’ as they called Joseph Beuys seminal installation and pretended to be tip toeing around the Kandinsky’s before speeding off down the corridor screaming. After that I decided to treat ourselves to a proper lunch in the cafe and they behaved surprisingly well colouring in their placemat. I even had time to take in the wonderful view over the Millennium Bridge and St Pauls Cathedral before mopping up spilled drinks and picking up food from the floor. Hey, it’s a definite improvement from a few years ago when I remember trying to eat lunch in a packed restaurant with a screaming baby on my lap. Now, that was stressful!

And since it was such a successful day out we took The Cowboy the following weekend for another trip into town and admired the London Eye before strolling along the Southbank and exploring the new all-day cafe at the National Theatre called Kitchen. They served super yummy food and I highly recommend you try it out as it’s a lot quieter than some of the other places along the Southbank.

London, I’ve fallen in love with you – again!
