I’ve always said I don’t mind it when the weather is shite during the work week then you’re not missing out on much. However, a nice day outside makes you feel happier … even if you do have to enjoy it from the inside of an office!

You never know what you’ll see wandering the streets of London. You may just find a hidden garden (apparently winner of Best Wildlife Garden for Camden In Bloom 2009):
