Writing this card at the Post Office Tower. We have just been up the top looking at a lovely view, you could see Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Houses of Parliament, Tower Bridge & lots of other famous places. On Monday we went to the cinema and had dinner at a Wimpy Bar.

By the time I arrived, Rob was in love with someone else. He had told me he was seeing someone but that it wasn't important. I have been, as you can imagine, devastated & very unhappy.
