With just over 3 weeks to go until Christmas Day (how quickly has this year gone?!), Holiday Shopping seems to be in full swing for many. The London Christmas Lights are now on, Black Friday has been and gone, and…
Afternoon Tea in London is such a wonderful tradition, it makes you feel rather British, not to mention it satisfies that 3 O’Clock craving for tea and cake. I’ve been meaning to try the beautifully looking Afternoon Tea at the…
