After some 7 years of electronic comms via email, then chat, then SKYPE . . Kelly (a.k.a. CHIENWORKS) and I met, along with a totally charming business colleague of his.
We met at the BFI (British Film Institute - one of my fav "come-to's" for my favourite UK-Visitors) and proceeded to walk along the southern Thames Embankment, where, of course, I held Court on the various sites to be "drunk-in" . . Speaking of which we did an awfully restrained version of 2 hours later in the Bar . . .
We took in the OXO Tower, the "Wobbly-Bridge", St Paul's Cathedral, the distant City-Scape and Tower Bridge. Finally returning on the opposite side of the River we were able to marvel at the illuminated, "cerise-coloured", London-Eye and National Theatre - marvellous!
Kelly is one of life's true gentlemen. If you have ever felt this when you have read his responses here, I can safely confirm that this is even more apposite, now that I have met him in the flesh.
As I left them to return home, they were making plans to visit Stonehenge. I'm now wondering what the Druids will make of Kelso? All those vertical columns, I bet Kelly will divine something Binary from their 1-0-1-0 appearance.
A great evening . .
