East London and Shout Outs

This post will be a post of shout-outs, starting with my friend Cille, whom I must thank for showing me fascinating East London on perhaps the most gorgeous day we've had so far. What's in East London? Bars that stay open until a reasonable hour, for one. West Indies ethnic food. Markets busy and lively as any in London. Markets provide not just a sense of community but an actual place to be communal. And good food.

We saw the famous (apparently) Brick Lane, which was, due to the weather, overwhelmingly crowded. And I suppose that's it for East London...

To end with, shout outs to the A34s and B53s of Shafer house, especially Ally, Chris and Bhavik - congradulations on your touch-the-cup victory last night, gentlemen.

Next week - my report on Scotland and hopefully pictures, finally.
