To date this was one of the best days in England. We found a Farmers Market in Nottinghill. I found great "real" milk, hand crafted spelt sourdough bread, beet juice, organic veggies and sweeties for Lucy, all local and clean! It's a jackpot for a localvore like me!
Later in the day while a bit turned around near Kings Cross we came across the oldest British Brewery. Although it was only a little after one p.m., Tyler and I took one look at each other and we knew we had to at least try it out! Beer is a staple food in the Portland area, we take it seriously.
The beer didn't hold a candle to our beloved Bridge Port Blue Heron. But Tyler's stout filled him up and my cider was very sweet and strong!
The Pub was great...there was just one problem.
The plumbing that is in place throughout London is the original plumbing from when they invented flush toilets!
This being a building older then flush toilets you can just imagine what the plumb system might be like.
As soon as "Lu" and I walked downstairs to the bathroom the most foul zoo like smell came over us!
All part of living in one of the oldest civilized Cities in the world I suppose!
