And the celebratory boston car rentals mood is infectious. Everywhere I go, people are picnicking in parks and on village greens, deck chairs are spread out under leafy trees to relax in, and children are splashing around in fountains. I ve even noticed quite a few people barbecuing, not something I associate with the English.
Last night, in Hyde Park, over 40,000 people gathered to participate in The Proms  conducted just over the road to another huge crowd in Albert Hall, waving their flags and singing along to Elgar s Land of Hope Glory,  and   the traditional Rule Britannia.  You d swear the Empire was being resurrected.
I ve never known London to be in such a good mood, or to look so good.  Whenever I ve visited over the past few decades, I ve found it to be rather scruffy and down-at-heel, boston car rentals but clearly the massive preparations for the Olympic Games, and also for the Queen s Jubilee, have put a shine on this on everything.
The streets are clean, as are the sparkling new buses which are a joy to ride around in, especially on the top deck. Even better, are the regular announcements telling you exactly which bus stop is coming up.  And in major tourist areas such as Russell Square, helpful boston car rentals guides stand outside tube stations to help you find your way.
Can t say I ve dined at any of the top restaurants the likes of Heston Blumenthal, Marco Pierre White and Gordon Ramsay being far too expensive for me but I ve stumbled upon some lovely things such as the new tea store located in the Upper Thames foyer of   The Savoy Hotel  and a couple of pleasant eateries ( Tom s Kitchen and Fernandez Wells ) at Somerset House.
There s been one big treat. Before leaving home, I d booked a table at Petersham Nurseries at Richmond where Aussie chef Skye Gyngell boston car rentals earned a One Michelin Star.  Sadly it was this very award which triggered her departure, the stress of maintaining standards and dealing with customer expectations proving too much for her.
On a sunny day, the setting here is so magical boston car rentals that s it s worth the hour-long trip from London.  Just wandering around the nursery , surrounded boston car rentals by plants and pots and fountains is a balm for stressed nerves. If you don t want to eat at the restaurant, there s a Teahouse  which serves a delicious range of salads and cold dishes, set out attractively on a long table; or just refresh your energies with tea and cake.
Well-known Melbourne chef Greg Malouf  is now installed at the restaurant: he has a lovely light touch (see here for one of his recipes), and you can detect his Middle Eastern influences in dishes such as the Haloumi boston car rentals Spinach boston car rentals Pastries (delicious) and Baked Young Aubergine, Feta, Tomato boston car rentals Summer Leaves (so-so).   My favourite was the exquisite Salade-Shiraz with Edible Flowers, not unlike the recipe for the Edible Flower Salad I gave last week, though Greg s also has chopped radishes, radicchio, halved cherry tomatoes and long thin strips of cucumber through it.
We also fitted in a visit to Spitalfields and Brick Lane, East London, on a very busy warm Sunday. It was buzzing with people, mostly 20 and 30-somethings. They sat on the footpaths along Brick Lane, devouring plates of take-away dishes from all over the world (Lithuania, Cuba, Venezuela, Mexico and Malaysia, to name a few) while the Indian and Bangladeshi restaurants opposite remained empty.
