I have no idea what the building is, but how lucky for you to live in central london and so close to so many historic places!
I have been out walking the last few days after 3 months of lockdown. I have lived here for at least forty years and yet in the last 3 days I have seen buildings ,statues, churches and many other sites that I didn't know exsisted. You are never to old to learn 😁x
Is it in Greenwich because I used to spend a lot of time in Greenwich which is very beautiful
No, but agree I does look the same
Could you give me a clue please
The building looks familiar
Ok think of flowers🌻🌼⚘x
Is it where the Chelsea Flower show is
Is it the Chelsea Barracks
Yes, very close but not the Barracks x
It is something to do with Chelsea but it could be the Chelsea and Westminister Hospital
I know I am very close but I simply cannot say
Very close again !, the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital is where I go for my appointment fyi xx
You are very fortunate to live in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea
It is one of the richest areas in the world
It is the Royal Hospital Chelsea
Yes,!!, for the chelsea pensioners, it is and amazing g building, a church, gardens used for the flower show a wooded garden and much more x
I think you are very blessed
When you first lived in Chelsea forty years ago , could you have ever thought London House Prices would be in terms of millions as it is now
I live I Pimlico, Westminster, but Everything as you know is within easy walking distance x
I quite like the London landmark guessing game
I wonder if you could out smart me
But my home is in Streatham not quite Chelsea
Streatham may not be central London but has some nice buildings. I used to go to the Streatham Locano disco back in the late sixtys, all the way from East London!! ( East end boys and posher girls lol )xx
Royal Naval College? 🙄🌸
I am so jealous of you living in London. I was born in Chiswick and I grew up just outside London - near Hampton Court Palace. I still miss it and feel like an exile.
No not the collage I just love Hampton Court, usually get the boat from Westminster pier and train back, also the park with the deer is just amazing xx
I used to live in a place where our local park was joined to the park at Hampton Court and you could walk all the way from my local high street through the park to the palace. I still miss it dreadfully. I think it's because both times I moved away (in my late teens and again in my twenties,) it wasn't by choice. I still get really sad about it.
It's a lovely area and I always try to make a trip at least once a year and they also have their on flower show at Hampton court, been a few times xx
Yes. I haven't been back to the area except to attend a funeral. 🙁 Sorry, feeling a bit sad today.
Sorry to hear that, If there is anyway I can cheer you up ? Just ask x♥️x
Thanks. Can I move into your garage/ shed/ dog kennel?
Umm... scratch that, I shall just have to make do with your jokes.. 😨🌸
Part of the problem is that I have something called 'emotional lability' which I got from my brain injury. It means my emotions go up and down and all over the place at the drop of a hat and very often I don't know why. The horrible thing is that I know in my mind that's what is happening, but the emotions are still very real. So you have helped by letting me moan at you. Thank you. 🙄🌸
You can moan at me anytime you want my darling, it will be like water off a ducks bottom, you see I have a problem in the opposite way ( no injury) just that something in my head/ brain will not let my worry!. I can be having the biggest trauma going on and my brain says go sleep, and I have too which is wrong I know. Even when I was told I had the blood cancer and had to take chemo tablets I just shrugged my shoulders said ok and went and bought a sandwich. I wish I could worry or fret sometimes because it's like my head I'd running away from taking responsibility you cant smile and joje anothe time, anyway you can chat to me anytime you feel low ♥️xx
Sorry about my waffling xx
You aren't waffling. I don't get worried, I just suddenly become really sad, joyful, angry, frightened - for no apparent reason. It's like something waiting to pounce on me without notice. I absolutely hate it. Perhaps we could exchange a few brain cells and even things out?!
How is your health now? (Don't answer if I am being too nosey...) 🙄🌸
No you can ask away, before I amdiagnosed with ET jak2 ,I had blurred vision, dizzy spells, nose bleeds/ clots and tingling fingers for a few years and nobody knew why,then one very lovely young lady locum I saw on a visit to the gp said my platelets had been high for a long time and made quick appointment at the Hospital where they gave me a bmb put me on Hydroxy and aspirin. I have had no problems in anyway and in all honesty would not know I am I'll ( unless my brain is telling me that lol)
Xx
You ok Marnie ?? Xx
Yes, thanks. I had a phone call from someone I used to work with. We speak every few weeks.
I confess I don't think I fully understood everything you explained about your health, but I am glad you are not terribly badly affected day to day. Unless one of the symptoms is telling agonisingly bad jokes. ( I have a feeling you have been telling those for years!) 😅🌸
Sorry re grammar spelling etc using my phone doh, I feel well in every way at the moment and always look on the bright side rather than dark. To be honest I am very stoical about most things in my life, I'm a bit like Mr Bean, mean well,but usually something goes completely wrong!. I must tell you about my mothers funeral, ashes some time 😫😫😫 but funny now. Sorry carrying on again, as I said you can talk to me at anytime x♥️x
Thanks, I do appreciate it. You don't drive like Mr Bean do you? With an armchair on the roof of the car as your driver's seat? 🤗🌸
😁 no, not that bad but I really could write a book ( all my friends say I should) about my mishaps so so many but all of them I can laugh at now !. That's all that matters that you/ me can smile.🙂xx
True. I have been so glad that my sense of humour wasn't affected by my brain injury as many other parts of my personality have changed. You need to be able to laugh. I think it's one thing that's vital in life. 🙂🌸 Along with the correct use of apostrophes.
It looks a very beautiful building. 🌞😊
Hello
Can you give us a clue please ?
Apsley House
149 Hyde Park
Famous Resident
Duke of Wellington
Bleeding hell Roukaya how did you do that !!!!!!
But the address is also known as number one London ! Xx
Are you willing to do another Landmark puzzle in London
It is up to you
Ok the last place I went today, but YOU will get it easily !
London Peace Pagoda in Battersea
Yes see, I knew you would get that, you know more about London than I do !!!! 😁
I used to love London but despite my education I did not succeed with the career I had hoped
I moved to Derby but here I became the carer to my Father and manger his business
I am now by myself and I struggle to cope with an over demanding elderly Mother who puts all her worries on me
I have struggled with a Diploma in Wills and Probate for three years and this does not matter to her
Very hard to cope even though she lives overseas
Good Afternoon
I hope you are well
I studied in London with high hopes
I returned back to Derby thinking my Father would listen to me but he was involved with another woman and it fell on me to be his carer and manage his business
My Mother is experiencing problems as her male friend is becoming nasty but after dealing with everything to do with my Father I have said you have to try to sort this out yourself
Again I am tired mentally as I struggle to cope with my own life
What ever I have done for her is taken for granted
I didn't get this one Bazaak! But it seems you have to be very wily to find a scene that no-one will recognise! 😀
Did you ever see the old film Passport to Pimlico?
I have blood cancer too, it was my rather unwelcome 50th birthday present 😯😀xx
Yes I have seen passport to Pimlico, but did you know it was filmed across the river in Lambeth!. Sorry to hear about your blood cancer, how is it going ?, stay positive x♥️x
I didn't know that no. Every day is a school day! I'm ok thanks, no treatment and being monitored with blood tests.. Still some mental adjustment going on though, some days better than others and I do get tired.. Hard to say what is down to the cancer and what is caused by my other health problems! 😀. I'm thankful for every day, feel very blessed and do what I can when I can. I'm on my own apart from my legs and spend a lot of time gardening and reading. Whilst isolating I've taken up painting by numbers which is fun though I'm no artist 😯. I used to spend a fair bit of time in London when I was going and even considered moving down there but family circumstances kept me here instead and then the moment passed. Xx
Lovely to hear back from you, you stay strong and keep up with your hobbies. The thing you must not do is sit and do nothing which is something I'm prone to do doh. Re moving down to London , you probably made the right decision to stay where you are , the suburbs on the outskirts are fine and where I live, Westminster is fine, but most of the inner London districts youjust wouldn't want to live there. Sorry carrying on too much 😁 you have a nice weekend and stay safe xx⚘🌼🌼
Back then London was a very different place. You aren't carrying on too much at all! Nice to chat. Your jokes make me laugh, really lightens the day. Enjoy those walks! Xx
I'm really pleased that I lighten your day, your remarks lighten mine ❤xx
Aw, thank you, that's nice! Bet you haven't tried my Bad Poetry yet!! Boy will that be a treat for you 😮😂xx
No, I will check it out ! Xx
Enjoy 😳 I'm no poet, they're written for comic effect. All about my constant companion who is a greyhound. We're shielding together! Xx
If you want a companion that will always love you through good and bad times, choose a dog ❤xx
Definitely. I nursed him through intestinal failure followed by a stroke then found I had cancer! It wasn't our year...I was more worried about him than myself. Couldn't bear the thought I might leave him when he'd fought so hard, that he might not understand. We're both still plodding on though! Xx
