On my birthday we took the tube into London (after having my stitches from my skin cancer surgery removed at the local hospital). Then we visited Kensington Gardens, and in particular the original Peter Pan Statue – there is a replica of it in Queens Gardens in Perth Western Australia (where we were married). A fantastic birthday dinner at the Spaghetti House, followed by a glass of bubbles prior to seeing Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty’s in Haymarket seated in the Royal Circle – what more could a birthday girl want? Very Special! In around a month or so we will be back in London for a Drs appointment (after my Chemo treatment)…..so as a treat Vince booked us in to see Wicked! How lucky am I!!!!!

(NB Just 5 days before flying out from Australia, Karen was diagnosed with an invasive Squamous Cell Carcinoma (Skin Cancer) on her neck which was removed immediately. After getting a second opinion from her own doctor, the decision was made to go ahead with the trip as planned and undertake Chemo Therapy whilst on the road….Very Brave!)
