Things to remind me of London? I'm homesick

And I only live down in Cornwall! But visiting frequently takes a lot of time and money.

DH and I really miss London, we wish we could move back but we know we've priced ourselves out and probably can't afford to move back

What small things could I do to remind me of London? We worked in Bishopsgate.

Truro isn't quite the same 😂

Don't get me wrong, Cornwall is beautiful and the Cornish people are amazingly kind. (I am actually Cornish!) But I miss the buzz and excitement of life in the SE.

We moved back here to care for elderly parents who have now passed away. We improved their end of life by being here and I have no regrets.

Anyway, things that remind me of London? Apart from poking myself in the eye with an umbrella on a busy street? 😂

Notting Hill.

Sushi (I admit that's probably just me.)

I love this artist’s prints when I’m in a London-nostalgic mood:

Those are beautiful - thank you for suggesting them, I had never heard of this artist.
