Well peeps, I have 15min left on the wifi click,(yes they are charging me for this), and since the connection is slow, this maybe done in 2 posts.

Thu morn I got up my earliest yet, and hopped the tube to Old Street Station to join my tour with Urban Adventures. at the meetup point, I met Sue, my guide, who informed me that I lucked out with a one-on-one tour (no one else had booked!) she grew up in the East End and had first-hand info about this up&coming neighbourhood. I got to see so many street artists’ work, including the famous Banksy! We had some tea and dessert, and finished our   3 hour walking tour at Spital Field Market. Spital is short for hospital. I bought a lovely dress in the market for £15 and I can’t wait to wear it!

part 2 of this post will be done later today’s, when I have a faster & better (and hopefully cheaper) connection!
