patsylabrador Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I was thinking especially of Olly. I don't know if you work anywhere near Bloomsbury Square but I made a special visit into town today. On the corner of Bloomsbury Square there is a telephone box and you can buy the most delicious salads at lunchtime. It's called Spier's Salads. You can choose any combination and it has a surprisingly large choice. The portions are very generous too. I bought mine and caught the Central Line to Marble Arch and then walked across to the Serpentine and made a picnic of my lunch. It was fun although rather hot.

Olly Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Ooh that sounds good - I'm always on the lookout for something new. I no longer work in central London, I do go up from time to time but there was no way I wanted to be on the Tube in 30 degrees! I want to start going into town more often to go to exhibitions etc so this sounds just my sort of thing - handy if I'm going to the British Museum. I'm also intrigued as to how it works from a phone box! Must be the Tardis ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Cool, I'll have to quiz my brother as to whether he's visited, as he works over at Senate House, which I think is round there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 How does he keep them cool in this weather? Can't see a fridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsylabrador Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 That did cross my mind but he has a fridge in the telephone box and I think it's lined with insulating type stuff. It looked and felt cool plus he sells out very quickly, I don't think any food is hanging about for long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
