Take Monday off! Enjoy a kids-free lunch date with your baby daddy in Barrafina is always a good idea!

Quick, easy, cheap thai food. It's fairly new to me, but easily makes this list.

One of my favourite record shop in London! The iconic Rough Trade, in the heart of Ladbroke Grove, just off Portobello Road.

Great beer and whisky selection, a friendly crowd, and top quality music programming upstairs, you can't go wrong with The Lexington

One of those rarely found shops that inspires one to craft and creativity. A huge selection of high quality papers to print and draw on, to cut, fold, glue or just wrap presents with.
