Travels in....Kensington

On Wednesday I was in Kensington. The area's usually notable for its wealthy residents but I was there to another famous attraction - The Royal Albert Hall! Sadly only from the outside, I've been in there for a gig last year and it was beautiful, but this time my flatmate wanted to take photos of the outside to make up part of his final art project.

I don't normally hang out amid the leafy gardens and white buildings of affluent south London, so while I was there I thought I would check out some of their other legendary venues. We stopped by the V&A and had a quick turn at the fun (and sadly aimed at 6 year olds) games at the Science Museum before heading off for a sly half at the Wilton Arms. It was very busy for a Wednesday evening but a good time was had. In fact, the Wilton Arms is probably my top recommendation of this week, a simple pub perhaps, but then isn't a simple pint one of life's greatest pleasures. I think so.

And we're heading back there for the karaoke tomorrow night!
