Time to read: 2 minutes Ok. So maybe not “indestructible”. But if you use one of my travel card holders and it falls apart (you know, how the plastic ones do?) within a year of purchase, i’ll make you an identical new one for free!

Here’s the photo that earned the “first photo of 2013” accolade, from my instagram. See it on Holland Park’s facebook page. the story On the first day of 2013, I went […] continue reading »
Time to read: < 1 minute I got a recommendation from a colleague for OUTLET, for professional (or rather… LGB) flatshares, where I found an excellent housing prospect! But OUTLET requires a £7.50 subscription to let you contact the advertiser. (EEEP!) So… I used part of the description text to google with, and found the same advert on SpareRoom!!

Time to read: < 1 minute London – Eating & Drinking – Restaurant – French – Eating & Drinking – Restaurant The pricetags do not quite match the food. I suppose that’s the only reason this is getting a 3. Despite the tastecard discount, I am still not impressed. The flavours were nice enough. The scallops cooked very well.
