Back in action!

French keyboards are different to ours! The letters are in the wrong place. It's been a damn busy week. Last Monday, I did a Jack The Ripper walking tour of Whitechapel in London, checking out the murder scenes and what still exists from 1888. It was led by a pretty blonde who's writing not one but TWO books on the fascinating subject (AW - she knows the guy who wrote the book on Tumblety, but apparently new evidence has ruled him out completely. Damn!). I was going to check out a ukulele store called The Duke Of Uke while I was there, but it's closed on Mondays! Just my luck. However, I did have an absinthe in a pub called The Ten Bells. It opened in 1753 and was a favourite haunt of the Ripper's victims. On Tuesday, I went to beautiful Paris and visited some amazing museums before coming to Brittany (where I am now) for my friend's wedding. I'm glad to say it all went off without a hitch. Great day. And someone gave me two Euros for playing 'When I'm Cleaning Windows' on the steps of the chateau where the reception was being held. Tomorrow, I head to Cognac (hic). More from me when I return to London on Friday...
