You’ve Been Tango’ed

An awesome start to February. After a weekend where I saw 60 people rollerskating down Sloane Street with a very frustrated Ferrari-driver directly behind them (I love London!) to a 30-minute journey from Hammersmith to Colindale taking 2 hours because of an accident at Chiswick Roundabout ( I hate London!), I was ready for a restful week. Instead, this week has turned out be fun and entertaining. Beats me how the Universe works.

The best story of the week has been that of the men who were arrested after a wild chase through the streets of Seville. They were arrested after 4 TONNES(!!!) of Seville oranges were found in their car. Their story? The oranges were for personal consumption 🙂 Now, I bow to no one in my love for one of the products made from Seville oranges- Marmalade. No, Paddington Bear is a wannabe compared to me. But, come on! How could that sure-fire excuse fail? They should get reduced sentences for the chutzpah they’ve exhibited as long as they can each eat one kilo of sour Seville oranges in one sitting. Remember children, stealing four tonnes of oranges is bad!

Second-favourite was this menu description from Burger & Cocktails on James Street in the West End. No, I did not have the Red-Eye coffee. Even I’m not foolhardy enough to think that the world needs to see me jacked up on a four-shot coffee. One day……… BTW, the Smoking Dog at Burgers&Cocktails is amazing – a hot dog wrapped with bacon in a squidgy bun, topped with ketchup and mustard. Pure ambrosia. Not to mention the Pizza Fries… You’re hungry now, aren’t you? Job done 🙂

I leave you with images of some pretty amazing, gravity-defying buildings: Solo House  in Matarraña, Spain and Cube Houses in Rotterdam. Have a lovely week. Pip pip.
