To @smitf_london, there - in my role as a top arbiter of fashion - to attend the launch of Matty Bovan’s Autumn/Winter collection. Very excited to find out what I’ll be wearing this coming Christmas!
Mind you, I’ll tell you one person who would have been very down on fashion shows: St Martin.
I’m going to look so hot in this
Loved the whole Old Testament / Wizard of Oz vibe

To Mayfair, there to plunge into the bowels of London for a tour of Down Street tube station: opened in 1907, closed in 1932, & used by Churchill & the war cabinet as a bunker until the Cabinet War Rooms were up & running.
Reading @margarettelinc1’s new book, London & the 17th Century: The Making of the World’s Greatest City, & enjoying it very much.
Having already done walks of Roman, Anglo-Saxon, Medieval & Tudor London, I feel another marathon coming on…
I curl back up with London & the 17th Century - been looking forward to it all day!
“In 1636, City authorities petitioned that Stepney’s high number of plague deaths might not be included in London’s Bills of Mortality, so as not to give a worse impression of sickness in the City than was the case” - @margarettelinc1#LondonInThe17thC
To Lancing, there to meet with the willow masters of @Newbery_Cricket, who - in readiness for the mighty deeds that I will be performing this coming summer - are going to be forging me a Bat of Power.
