Whitecross Market has some fantastic Street Food stalls. Worth a walk if you are in the City.
Ah that takes me back [emoji3]. I used to work 2 minutes away in Old Street. Whitecross was the company canteen. I used to buy something and sit in the graveyard to eat it (which was much nicer than it sounds).

They still don't have the coleslaw I like in Morrisons, so I assume it's no longer available.
Ho hum.
Lunch was a Peter's steak & kidney pie (reduced) with Heinz baked beans (unreduced), augmented with half a Morrisons quiche lorraine (reduced), which was very nice.
Last night's televisual entertainment commenced with episode six of The Pacific. The protagonists didn't seem to be enjoying life on a tropical island very much
Then I watched Unbreakable, having been suckered in on the premise that it started with a train crash. Spoiler alert: we don't get to see the actual train crash, and the rest of it is just one of those journey-of-self-discovery-with-a-twist stories in which M. Night Shyamalan seems to specialise
So, having been denied a train crash, I realised that although I'd got the whole Robocop trilogy (it having been cheaper on Amazon to get the box set rather than the first alone) I'd only watched the first one, so I watched Robocop 2 - and finally got an absolute train wreck. I spent most of the film trying to work out whether it was so appalling because of gross incompetence on the part of those responsible, or if they knew what they were doing but just had such absolute contempt for their audience that they figured this steaming heap of garbage was the insult we deserved
