A WEEK END TO REMEMBER

Antiques have taken a back seat for the last few days...............as the whole of London celebrated the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Sunday it was the pageant on the Thames. Dinner the night before looking out over the water........

The following day we decided to go to the mouth of the Thames by way of the Olympic stadium and the docks north of the river. Stopping for a sandwich at a brand new cafe near the Olympic Stadium, good food and nice people!

Leon a local.............

.............fishing from the docks at Tilbury, the water is now so clean that Dover sole are caught despite the "no fishing" sign............and a seal had just been seen................

Canvey Island at the mouth of the Thames

News of antiques and the shop soon..................
