On Sunday this week a few of (three lol) the MLUKFC mob decided that 90 degrees in the shade was ideal weather for a hour long tube journey and half an hour in a glass bubble......................................off we went to the London Eye!!!!!!!!!!

Kind of easy to find, big wheel sticking up next to the river

Some nerves were starting to set in as we headed for boarding (or as we English call it.....queuing!!!)

And as we're in England......more queuing!!!!

And still queuing lol

Then all aboard and take off!!!!!

Then it over all too soon and we were back on solid ground, the experience lasted half an hour but was well worth the hour and a half queuing and all for the princely sum of £15pp

We went walkies and found a statue in memory of MLUKFC meets ups

And last one, if you're out and about in London look to the sky's.....for some reason only known to a few that spend tax payers money there's these little men statues on top of quite a few buildings, we got bored playing spot the jumper after a while lol

Was a great day out and was an item on the agenda for the last meet up but that turned into the boat trip as time was running out!!!!!!

Ps....this was when we said goodbye to Emma as unfortunately vertigo just wouldn't let her join us up and away!!!!!!!

And more by luck than judgement I happened to catch our elusive SamCat from up above............can you spot her (hint, she's looking after the pushchair lol)

Heres a warning to all Geordie men, if you spend too long "down south" you may have yearnings too for a "man bag"!!
