London - Going around in Circles (North and South)

Sunday was relaxed, rode across turn to have lunch with pals 
And then on to Greenford to visitp my aunt, further around the North Circular Road. We had time for a longer chat than usual as their was no rush to catch a ferry. Helped her to understand her smartphone, figure out WhatsApp, and introduced her to her new friend, Google: Hey Google.... ? 
Back to NotNat's the other way on the North Circular.

Monday, another relaxed day, breakfast at the Ace Cafe on the North Circular Road, first time for the fluoro orange to grace their carpark (should have taken a picture🤦🏽). 
A quick tea stop and another pal's
Then back to my aunt's to set up her Freeview Play TV box so programmes can be paused for loo breaks. Dinner with another pal at a most delicious Kurdish restaurant in Greenford. 
Then back on the North Circular again!

Tuesday, my stalking skills were put to good use in solving a personal mystery; I manned to finally track down a long lost, favourite chemistry teacher. Sadly he died a few years ago, but I met his wife who told me they had a good life together. I said he had had a positive impact on my life and she seemed to appreciate that.

This time it's the South Circular Road to Clapham, for lunch with a pal. 
Then onto Aldershot to stay with my cousin and hubby. Nice dinner in town. Sad to see it's not what it was, as many of the army units have left, including the famous Parachute Regiment that had been based there.
