Hopefully not a 15% handling charge!

Is that the actual title of the book.

 

I'm trying to find a copy.

 

That was a short essay written by O'Brian for an American newspaper. http://www.wwnorton.com/pob/vol3ii.htm

 

Such puddings are regularly mentioned in most of his books. If you check out Amazon you will find them all still readily available.

Thanks Bob, I had ancestors in the RN in 18th and 19th Centuries.

Can't decide if the non recognition of those words is silly or funny. It recognises fanny packs that Americans wear and Brits would t dare mention them! Seems like discrimination to me.

Do they have any street food vendors set up anywhere near the London Eye like they do at the Greenwich Market?

There are often street food stalls on the South Bank by the London Eye. There is also a great selection round the back of the Festival Hall.

Borough Market is another place to check out.

Very close - I think it is only there weekends though. Woodwards Farm burgers are lovely (Will supplies all of our beef and it is gorgeous).

There is a good food market in Picadilly. Just a stroll from the Ritz and Fortnum and Mason. It is in the Courtyard of St. James Church. Only certain days.
