my little nook of London


I used to work around the corner from Lamb's Conduit Street in London and nothing makes me happier than the huge growth of independent stores and cafe's and very good restaurants around there.

They're a true community that has become established there and I think the commitment they all have to something they're passionate about is very inspiring.

Monocle did a very nice little video about it a while ago and it features Marc Kennard who I knew well when I was there and gave up his very high paying job for something he just really wanted to do.

If you go to London and you're headed to the British Museum or just find yourself bopping around Holborn, you must visit.
