Places In London I Now Know Better: Kentish Town / Camden Town

Highly recommended: The Pineapple on Leverton Street (ignore the gripes in the linked reviews - it's a fantastic pub), Mamma Mias cafe on Kentish Town Road

Recommended: The Lock Tavern (even if the roof terrace was rather windswept on Saturday night)

Not recommended at all - in fact, give a very wide berth: the takeaway immediately outside the Camden Underworld. The Woody Grill would have been a much better bet, on reflection. (It goes without saying, though, that I wasn't in much of a state for reflection upon stumbling out of said club in the early hours of Sunday morning...)

Questions which remain unanswered: Does the Owl Bookshop only sell books to owls? Or does it only sell books about owls?

(I think this could become a regular post every time I get back from a weekend in London...)

And while I'm on about London: Save the Intrepid Fox on Wardour Street in Soho. (Thanks to Inspector Sands for the link.)
