Open House weekend
Despite being born and bred in London, I learnt so much at Open House by visiting a few of the places on show. I thoroughly recommend it for next year if you’ve not tasted the hidden delights of London 😊 View photos Open House weekend

Hokusai – productive til the end
I was very lucky to have bought a couple of tickets for the sellout Hokusai exhibition at the British Museum. Hokusai was an incredible artist who continued to produce great works until his death at 90! View photos Hokusai – productive til the end
Regent Street art
Seen just oef Regent St yesterday whilst shopping for Gucci handbag 😉

First night of the proms
First night of the proms: standing in the gallery with the gods and the BBC. Photographing the filmmakers: you can see presenter, Katie Derham, below and the women controlling the autocue. Even the “spontaneous” remarks are scripted. Is nothing sacred?! 😊 View photos First night of the proms
Indian Film Festival – Newton
Without any plans, we ended up at the BFI to see Newton and director’s Q+A, part of the London Indian Film Festival. It examined the complexities of democracy in India (and around the world) in a satirical, simple and charming way. A lovely small film: catch it if you can 😊
