Enjoy the trip!

I will be paying a visit to the Tower next week to see the Seas of Red.
I hope you enjoy the day tomorrow- but remember it will be busy!
We do this sort of thing so well.
I've ordered two poppies but not expecting them for sometime.

308 hobbies in Holloway Road.
Other than that you really are going to have to go out to the suburbs.

No experience of the place in the last 50 years, but this used to be Henry J Nicholl's shop. It's a five minute walk from the Holloway Road underground station.
