Finished our game of Monopy today!

We finished our game of Monopoly today, starting off at Marble Arch for better photos of Park Lane and Oxford Streets then back on the tube to Oxford Circus where we changed to the Bakerloo line for Marylebone Station and morning tea…

then back on the Bakerloo line jumping off at Baker Street to check out 221B where there is as plaque on the wall saying ‘Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective 1832 to 1904’ then back on the tube to Oxford Circus where we walked down Regent Street for Great Marlborough Street which just happens to be where Liberty’s is… had a walk around the fabric section admiring the Kaffe Fasset new range but didn’t buy anything… back onto Regent Street and there was Hamley’s so we had to have a look at the 5 floors of toys but with two Grandchildren who have so many toys we didn’t spend any £’s here either. Bus to Piccadilly Circus and the Piccadilly Line to Leicester Square which was tricky to find as there seemed to be many possibilities… eventually we found the right one and had lunch in an Italian Café that also sold Turkish Kebabs. Walked to Covent Garden and found our last place… Bow Street!! Hip Hip Hurray… it took us two tries but we’ve have now been to every place on the Monopoly Board!


David has written up the quickest way to find all the Monopoly places so we will be able to do all 26 places in one day next time.

Oh Pennie your trip down Monopoly is like a trip down memory lane for those of us not travelling outside Oz.Must just ask where is Redding? I don't know if that is how you spell it but that is where my Gtandmother was born.
Love Christine in very very warm Bathurst which is how summer should be.
