#1. Cute and lethal.
Then, I ran a lot. We ran after buses, after trains and more trains. Save for that exercise, we had a very relaxing Saturday. Thank goodness coz I was tired from all that walking in the last 2 days!
The Borough Market is a very interesting makan market. It's a mish mash of everything! You can get mediterranean stuff, chutneys and jams, fresh seafood, barbeque ostrich and kangaroo, chocolates, organic vege, etc. And cheeses, oh my the cheeses. There are cheese with names I've not heard of and one was even aged in a wine barrel (tellingly called drunk cheese, haha). Feel like buying some of them back. We tried a hot apple juice with cinnamon, wild mushroom soup and chocolate mousse, and they're all very good, especially in the cold weather. The market's not very big but it's big on food!
#2. An eclectic mix at the Borough Market.
#3. Halloween pumpkins! Not cheap at 45 pounds @_@
Since it's Halloween and all, we did a Ghost of the Old City Walk with London Walks. Our guide is Shaughan, made up to look pale, hunchback and dressed in a flowing black cape.
#4. Reminds me a bit of Emperor Palpatine.
The walk started at 7:30pm, by which then the sky was already pitch black. I don't think the walk was ever meant to be scary coz the guide was funny, cracking so many jokes here and there. Due to said funniness, the ghost walk is not spooky one bit but was in fact, very informative. Even Dav and Steph said they didn't know some of the places existed. There's a church behind the St Bart's Hospital, which I walked by the other day, that I didn't know was there and it sounded like a place worth checking out.
After that we went back and attempted to watch a scary movie, just to continue on with the theme. We saw Shutter Island...fail max.
