@adbeggs Fabulous!

Alas I can no longer wear a sword in the City but apparently I can no longer be press ganged and I will be taking my family to the Annual Sheep Drive across one of the bridges next year!

Had a great afternoon out at the City of London Corporation after I obtained the Freedom of the City of London (by redemption) via the Company of Apothecaries. The history is fascinating and there are some great things on display at the Guildhall including Nelson’s sword!
