Considering where I am working right now, I haven’t seen enough of the local area during lunch breaks and so on. But when I do, I’m happy to have dragged myself away from the usual half hour of joy - slowly dribbling bits of sandwich between the keys. Walking in from a bright Spring afternoon, this place - with its perspex tables, neon lights, beeps, whirls and blips - was all a bit disorientating but then this is the future after all (and maybe that’s how I’ll feel at eighty years old).

I like the sound of two Eurostar tickets for the price of one. The catch is you have to buy the Telegraph for a week. Not, however, if you sneak a peak at the newspaper stand coming out if the tube. Today’s password is CUISINE and yesterday’s was CELEBRATION. Bon chance.

Not being one to feel left out during all the election furure - here’s a rather topical website I’ve been working on these last few weeks. Makes for interesting reading, even if sometimes a little condescending. I might even vote - seeing as I’ll be in the country this time around. But have you considered tactical voting?
