Hay Girl in the Big City Again Part Two

I went to meet my young man's sister at Spitalfields, where she took us to a special little place for lunch. It's called s & m, for Sausage and Mash! The decor is kind of greasy spoon, but the sausages are wonderful, with proper red onion gravy and mash, and big mugs of tea.
At the end of the road is a big white church, Christ Church Spitalfields, the sort of thing that was built after the Great Fire by the likes of Christoper Wren or Hawksmoor. We ambled up to have a look at it, to find that a free concert was in progress. There was a harpsichord on stage, and a sort of jumbo lute, and various other instruments, with a soprano giving her all, followed by two men singing some sort of duet. It was all very twiddly and baroque, and perfectly suited the building.

Hailey took us to Selfridges - and there will now be a short commercial break....

Mmmm, cupcakes.... Lola's Cupcakes, in Selfridges, are absolutely delicious. We chose 9 different mini cupcakes in a box, to get the variety, and they were all delicious.
