If all fails there’s the El Rastro flea market, the most popular in Madrid – or in Spain, depending on who you ask. When you are tired of shopping and the street performers and the crowds, look for this little restaurant in the side streets – it serves sardines, beer and well, sardines. No cutlery, […]
For me Brick Lane is memory lane, although I’m not sure how much I remember surrounding the late nights culminating in a trip to the bagel shop – apart from the bagels and collecting next day’s Sunday papers from around the corner, before going home and eventually to bed.

Liverpool, what a great city. It’s changed since I was last here but that was over thirty years ago. There’s a great energy, a great vibe; it’s probably best though if you like The Beatles. This is the river side of Albert Dock, a bit nicer to walk around than last time. If you look […]
Maybe it’s a global obsession? Anyway, a Sunday stroll in Mumbai to any of the city’s leading tourist sites demonstrates the practice of the world’s new art form – the Selfie. India, more I think than anywhere else in the world, is the place to photograph – and be photographed. Here, off the coast of southern […]
