It promises to be a beautiful sunny weekend here in London and we have lots of suggestions for things to do! As it always happens when the weather turns nice, I am off to Paris for the week though I won’t complain. Hopefully, I’ll find time to do some mobile/live blogging from there, otherwise I leave you in the capable hands of scheduled posts and my co-bloggers, Priya and Minyi.
I’ll try to get you guys a weekend guide for next week from France.
Have a good weekend, everybody!
