For the first time in ages, I'm uptown. Stopping off at Holborn and the beauty of getting lost in the back streets.
The official reason I'm visiting London proper is to get the "new" Squarepusher album, the unofficial reason is that I haven't visited the west end in absolutely ages, not properly any way.
Used up the last of my McNopoly promotions in McDonalds and sat out in the square in Soho just off Oxford street. The best of all, walking round looking at all the mom and pop stores like pig and hen or that place near the British Museum with the bulldog statue outside.
Heading past it all with a few CD's grabbed, saw a massive queue looking in at one of the Korean beauty shops and they had a meet and greet with some K pop idol. Can't remember the shop or who it was (Korea is just Temu Japan to me) but do remember going into Seoul plaza and picking up an Mogu Mogu drink*, before heading home.
*Incidentally this and Jones Soda are some of the best stuff I've had not in a can. Mogu mogu stuff can be had from the bigger corner shops and Japan / Asian supermarkets, Jones Soda never appears and to date have only had it from one shop opposite the commie bookshop on Bloomsbury St. Oh and before I forget there is a normal Oxfam books / record place almost opposite, where I found Christ.
