Thanks for pointing out the typo, pump. Now corrected. Extra Extra, like the late editions of a lot of papers, is assembled as a late round-up of the day's news - and is equally vulnerable to the odd ...
This looks such jolly good fun. Wish I didn't have two left feet....
I love this. It has become my biggest aspiration to appear on Style-ist. And my second biggest aspiration to be brave enough to take photos for Style-ist....
I am sorry if I sounded trite about the plight of the plovers. I am an Essex girl, and an erstwhile member of the RSPB - birds, marshes, general pond life - I genuinely love it all. BUT there is plent...
Foux de fafa? Brilliant!! I love YouTube....
Sounds jolly good, but.... Why are the management changing a formula which has worked well for so many years and apprently forcing out stall-holders who have been trading there for such a long time? h...
Thanks paulcox! I'd forgotten how lovely it is there. Thanks to you it's gone on to my list of 'London to do' this year....
I was standing in the bakers the other day listening to a bunch of 13 year olds: one of them had been stabbed three weeks before(we were treated to a glimpse of the stitches), and they were talking to...

This looks lovely. Makes me want to go and have a snooze there rather than work this afternoon....
Thanks Callum! Oops! Racing ahead of matters there: too much CSI and Old Dogs on telly....
Sprinting in the Tate? Dancin' in the Science Museum? Next it'll be body-poppin' at the British Museum, skate boarding at the Natural History Museum and extreme ironing at the V & A. Gosh we're a tale...
FREE!!! Londonist forgot to mention that most of this stuff is free. Free stuff is good, wethinks....
Why thank you Miss Kira, and you're welcome! Things that can make you smile again and again are special, and Glen Baxter's work definitely falls into that category....
Hi ellen/Burntoutcar! Thanks for your comments, and yup, I did initially get the wrong Williams sister! I didn't watch the Ladies' final because as I mention in the post I find the game a little char...
Well, it's a cool photo, and as demolition goes it's rather exciting. Even if it is taking a long time....
'Excelleeeeeent!' Um, a la Bill and Ted....
Bloody blimey! I'd never noticed just how many of the little critters (fritters?) there are out there. I counted 4 just walking from the bank to the post office. It could so easily become an obsession...
It is good isn't it? Anyway, you're welcome - all part of the Londonist service....
