      Today we went on a tour of the Bank Of England. It was interesting to learn the history of money and see coins and notes from the past. The best bit was the gold bar which you could try and lift – it looked so light but weighed 2 stone! There was also two million pounds worth of shredded notes in tubes.

      There was a safe that you could try and crack by answering questions about the museum. After several attempts we managed and got a coupon for a prize. The prize was a little pin badge which we stuck on Tom.

      We had a little look in the Royal Exchange afterwards which is a really fancy shopping mall. I love the embroidery window displays in @[48713703067:Tiffany & Co.]

      We had lunch at Fatboy’s Diner, which is still the coolest place ever! My Dad was excited because it reminded him of the diner in the town where he grew up and they served coke floats.

      I went for the veggie cheese burger with onion rings and a Jamaican shake. The helpful menu explained dinerisms to us.

      I treated myself to a Fatboy’s pin badge with the trailer on it.

      We had a little look around the wharf before jumping on the tube back in to town. Tom fell asleep on the man next to him twice but he just giggled.

      In the evening we went to see @[106602966061813:The Black Swan] at the cinema.

    We had a drink in Wetherspoons after the film to help calm my Dad's nerves. He hates gore and blood, which the movie had too much of for his liking.

    Tom got a @[114366641938247:Mandeville] plushie which was reduced in Sainsbury’s to go with his Olympic bedspread.
