Oldest son Ed having come to England for a 40th birthday treat for his wife Gillian, most of us decided to meet them both for breakfast at The Wolseley Restaurant in Piccadilly London. Maytrees ma and family were unfortunately not present, as the breakfast clashed with their long standing prior family appointment.
Wimbledon mainline station being closed for new track laying, mrs maytrees, maytrees min and myself decided to travel to Town by Uber and meet maytrees mi, Ed and Gillian there.
The travel went perfectly as did the meal where we were provided with an upstairs table for six in a small alcove. Reminiscing about pre-nationalisation British Railways breakfasts, I chose a grilled kipper with mustard butter followed by croissant with oodles of coffee,
Given the gloriously sunny weather, after bidding farewell to Ed and Gillian who were flying back to Jersey from Heathrow Airport, the rest of us decided to walk back to Victoria Station for the District Line home.

Green Park was very crowded so much so that we realised that people were waiting to see the King meet with President Zelinski. following the dreadful time the latter must have had when meeting President Trump with Vice President JD Vance during the previous day.
None the less we had a very pleasant spring walk through the crowds to Victoria Station where we caught a Wimbledon bound Underground train promptly.
