The year I took my best friend to Portugal, my brother came to London and we visited André in Madeira! 2009 was a memorable one.
2009 started in a party mood having my work Christmas party a little out of season. We went out to the enjoy the London park life in Hendon and Hampstead Heath and strolled in central London.
