Cold meat and pickles

Boxing Day morning and we have navigated our way from west to east through the Metropolis to my brother’s place in Shoreditch. My parents are here too and like many other families around the country we will soon tuck into a mountain of cold meats and pickles.

In a home dominated by Addicks, this afternoon’s game will take precedent later as we listen in to the goings on at Yeovil. Come on you reds!

As for the photograph, it’s of one of the tiny shops along the Colombia Road Flower Market, just a stones throw away from my brother and his new fiancée’s place and the temptation of the smells and visuals make it one of my favourite Sunday morning spots.
