The Dodgy Teachers of Holland Park School

All the fit birds from Holland Park Skool are turning 5-0 this year and the presence of the Male Trailing Spouse has been requested to attend a few bashes back home. Thankfully, I'm 4,200 miles away in the Deep South and thus unable to attend anything anywhere in the world coz of the old Miley Cyrus (coronavirus).

Memories of Xmas Past in Far-Flung Lands


I love Christmas in London. The crowded, neurotic shops of Kensington High Street, the old, familiar bells of St Matthew's in Bayswater calling "come" to Midnight Mass, the sober tone of the Queen's Speech and the cold comfort of a James Bond flick. Not only do I love Christmas in the U.K., I miss it in mind, body and soul just like any other expat.
