Last week we were invited by our local MP

Mr Mick Wood to visit him in London and have

a look round the Houses of Parliment.

Here are a few pictures from that day..very busy

with lots of running about to do to get there on time.

One thing that certainly made this trip specail

was the generous gift of 3 First Class tickets

from our friends at GNER.

Sadly didnt get to many pictures of the train

but boy was it comfortable in 1st class..

Shame about the overhead power line problems

cant blame GNER for that.

Thanks Guys!

We would like to take this oportunity

to thank all at GNER for there support

and to say how well they handled the

problem with the power outage. I am

pleased to say at least one company

goes that extra mile to keep customers

satisfied! thanks again.

This is what we had come to see,

well not just the bell tower but

yes the houses of parliment.

Sadly we did not get too much

time to take many photos

inside the building but

here are a few of our day.

The day had been arranged so that we could

meet up with our local MP, get to have a look

round areas of the House which you would normally

not get to see. Due to the problems we had with

the disruption of service on the journey down.

We didnt get as much time as we would have

liked.

However it was more than made up by Mike

who went out of his way to tell us about the

house and of some of the history, even managed

to get an open invite for the next time we were

in London – Not bad for a poltician.

Not only that he likes his cakes as much as the

Scouts did!!!

Oh Yes we even met the Chief Scout.

He was there to bid fair well to the House

Scout Group,,,as he had just retired…this

was his second retirement speach..

Once we had finished our visit,

and to ensure we were not caught

up in the “strike” we decided to take

a flight on the London Eye….Boy that

is high….it doesent look to bad from

the ground but once you are up in

the cabins and looking down you

get to see London from a whole

new angle!! Brilliant.
