A freezy day in Margate, and a little trip to London

This is, of course, an exercise in pure data collection, but I feel I have to mention that the snacks were superb. Could there be a better use of Wasebi peas than the Turner's glass of crispy japanese bits? (They called them something else, although 'crispy japanese bits' is a perfect snack name).


The next week, London's Redchurch Street. First, the Owl and The Pussycat - what a mess they've made of the interior, but that's another story.
