How about a post that actually does justice to the title of this blog? I was a little early for my Saturday film and on my way to the cinema I passed The Chelsea Teapot. It is a relatively new cafe (they have been around for 3 months now) and it looked so lovely I [...]

Cycling in London My mum visited me this weekend and with the weather being fantastic we have been outdoors a lot. Among a lot of other things, we did a lot of cycling!

Who owns this tea towel I wonder … As I swear this tea towel isn’t mine!

The Berkeley (Knightsbridge – London) does not look grand from the outside, but you know it is expensive when you spot the fully hotel-uniformed men (beautiful long coat, bowler hat, gloves) standing outside the door. And I was waiting for one of them to tap me on the shoulder saying “where do you think you [...]

I heart shortbread Passing the baker on my way to work (yes on Saturday!), my eye fell on this heart shaped one. I am glad I live in an area where we still have a real baker. Even though they are not open on Sundays like they were in Denmark, real bakers are the best. [...]

Devon Cream Tea in the Wayside Cafe It’s really not bad to spend your 42nd birthday with your best friend in a cafe in Widecombe-In-The-Moor having a cream tea that looked as good as this and tasted as good too. We also visited Princetown which is known for the prison. And if you have seen [...]

The Feature Script mountain Last Monday I put my teeth in it, it was quite heavy to chew and it took a couple of days to get back into the writing groove. But I am in it, and spend most of the weekend in a cafe in Fulham, together with Billy, Milky Way Tea, the [...]

Storyboarding Storyboarding So while you surely are at home, having a nice dinner, enjoying the weekend – I am still at the office. I am the only person in the office. And I am not working, not on work work anyway. But I found a new song today, I am going to write a bit [...]

Love Actually – in a cake I could also have called it: Not a bad way to start your day II. Or – I missed my breakfast this morning, but someone brought this cake in! Or – would you like tea with that?

Dislocation Dance – Rosemary Staring at the blank screen before me, there are a couple of cheap tricks to get around that and post something anyway: 1. post a postcard – yeah but there have been quite a few of them here lately 2. post a pathethic poem – let’s not shall we 3. post [...]

Tea on Trafalgar Square Tea on Trafalgar Square I feel like someone pressed the ImprobaBILLity drive. Three times in a row or something. Which of course hasn’t been the case. S(larti) is first coming over tomorrow, but that’s a complete different story. “Button your shirt” Davy says, being remarkably fresh after the night sitting with [...]

A Cup Of Tea In The Cafe A Cup Of Tea In The Cafe Picture of the teacups here. In the category “Why don’t I think before I do”: I have signed up to be a volunteer for a documentary. Throughout our lives, we will meet hundreds of people, eat tonnes of food, spend money [...]

2nd of March 2007 – 4th night on the Trans Mongolian train “Are you asleep?” ~Gina “I have pretended to be dead since 1 am, but I am still alive, still awake.” ~Lawrence I had pretended to be dead since 1 am, but at 2.36am in the night I was still alive, still awake. I [...]

If you thought Tea wasn’t a big thing here in the UK, think again. If you thought that deciding who should make the next cup isn’t a big thing here at work, think again too. Knowing that asking it the normal (verbal) way only results in an even longer wait for a cup, one of [...]

Round and round Floating around I’m led astray I want my tea The Milky Way

Isle of Wight Dinosaur Poo And that is all you are going to get from me today. My colleague (Wow are they going to make it to the blog? Yes they did!) brought them from the Isle of Wight (on the list of to-visit), and they taste excellent with a cup of tea (with milk).

Oh-my-God. The postman just came, here in the office, delivering a stack of office mail. He does that every day, nothing interesting there really. From in between this stack of office mail, one of my colleagues fished a slightly different envelope, and handed it over to me. I normally never get post at work, not [...]

(Detail of a poster for the Science Museum) I love working in a hi-tech enviroment, and I am a gadget geek. And our office really is the center of technology. In our mailbox today: Something to remember in the Kitchen on the second floor: it’s on the same circuit as the server room, and the [...]

New Piccadilly Cafe Today I did speak to Lorenzo, the owner of The New Piccadilly Cafe. The Cafe, my Cafe. I paid my Minestrone soup, and asked him the question that had been bugging me since the last time I was there. “Is it true that this Cafe is going to close?”

New Piccadilly Cafe, Denman St, London W1 The Table in the New Piccadilly Cafe, Denman St, London W1 It was about time. Back in The Cafe. At last. It has been way too long. I went there directly after work, picking up a newspaper to read, on my way.
