Take Cover

Saw this device at the London Transport Museum (LTM) and was enlighten to learn that this is a one person air raid shelters installed for the transport staff working in exposed locations, such as railway yards. This particular one in LTm was used at Hainult.

M&M in London

Curiosity killed me and I had to visit the four level m&m's store in Leicester Square. Am not a chocolate lover but was amazed how much there was in this store. There was more than chocolate though, clothes, key rings, and all. 

Am still amazed how diversified they had gone. Guess the business is not mainly about the chocolate anymore, but more about the branding. m&m has done a good job here, and best of luck with the future. 

Apple Shop Price Display

So I ventured into one of the famous Apple store to explore getting an external storage hard drive, well as always the Apple branded drive are over-priced, but I did not get what I actually went for.

One good thing I observed though is the fact that all the Sales assistance do have iPad at hand to use for searching and answering your queries. It's good that they are indeed using their own device, which shows us the customer that iPad is more than a fancy gadgets. It will also enable the staff to learn how to use the device and probably enable to further be able to tackle tricky questions that someone like me will have.

That was all good, but the one that really amazed me was the fact that they went as far as using iPads for the price display. It gives you loads of information which they might not normally be able to display on print board. There was a functionality that allows you to call for assistance via the device if needed.

Again, respect to Apple. They always lead from the front.

London zoo

London zoo
Good friend, ms B called me on Thursday late evening asking if I wanted to head to the Zoo, hmm I said before reluctantly saying yes. In a nutshell

Still remains unbelievable that some many animals can be secured in solace like this, the lions, monkeys, fish, etc.
The ticket was obtained via Goupon thanks to a friend.

There were various food outlets here, Jamaican, Ghanian, Mexican, and even special Vegetarians. We went for the Ghanian, a bit of everything(jollof rice, meat stew, beans, spinach). Friend went for Mexican instead.

It was fun to see adults going on the rides. I could not resist the chance either, made me feel like a kid. Thank God the kids were not allowed, else they will be crying.

Would I say it's a good way to spend Friday, damn yes.
