And speaking of food, today’s lunch! Pictured: tartiflette and macaroni and cheese from Bath Soft Cheese Co. REALLY good, but the tartiflette was a bit intense, so I’m glad I got half & half. 😅 Not pictured: mulled mead, apple crumble with hot custard.
A disposable dish of macaroni & cheese and tartiflette.

Speaking of birds, these cuties were all over the place, singing and scavenging for food.

The Market, some things in the Market, and an absolutely perfect bird photobomb.
A photo of some food stalls at the Borough Market. A photo of a display of multicolored cannoli. A durian and a couple other fruits on a table with a red tablecloth. A nearby sign reads, “I am a durian!” A photo of the Borough Market, with the Shard looming in the background. A pigeon is flying through the shot, positioned perfectly at the tip of the Shard with its wings outspread.

Near the Bridge is the Monument to the Great Fire of London, which is cool as heck. (The monument, not the fire.)
A photo of the Monument, a 202-foot-tall stone pillar with a gold urn at the top and a relief carved into its base. A closer view of the Monument’s relief, with an informative plaque below it. A photo of some of the gargoyles at the top of the Monument’s base.

Today we visited London Bridge and the Borough Market! Some shots from the Bridge.
A photo of a stone plinth with the words “London Bridge” carved into it. On top is a silver statue of a dragon rearing above a white shield marked with a red cross. A view of a city skyline overlooking the Thames river. A photo of a huge battleship (I believe it’s the HMS Belfast?) moored in the Thames, framed by the Tower Bridge behind it. A photo of the Shard and surrounding buildings, with the sun and a horizontal vapor trail behind them.

More from Lost Souls. Pretty good pizza, too! Not pictured: the excellent graffiti in the gender-inclusive restrooms.
Art from the back of the Lost Souls Pizza drinks menu. It consists of comic-style panels showing Dracula wielding a tattoo pen, Frankenstein’s Monster eating a slice of pizza, and the Bride of Frankenstein licking an ice cream cone. There’s also a pizza with a pentagram drawn on it in sauce, an inverted cross with the words “The power of slice compels you”, and a takeout box full of worms. Art from the Lost Souls Pizza menu. It’s a faithful reproduction of the “Vampires Everywhere!” comic book cover from The Lost Boys. The Demogorgonzola pizza from Lost Souls Pizza. It has charcoal in the dough to make the crust black, and is decorated in the center with a fig sliced into five segments to look like the face of the Demogorgon from Stranger Things.

Lost Souls Pizza, the world’s only vampire-themed pizzeria. Obviously, heavily inspired by The Lost Boys, so of course we had to visit as ambassadors from “Santa Carla”. :D Again, hard to get photos inside, but the vibes were, as they say, immaculate.
A photo of the front door of Lost Souls Pizza. Its logo says “Bloody Tasty” and features a picture of a snarling vampire very reminiscent of David from The Lost Boys. A photo of the ceiling of Lost Souls Pizza. It’s covered in a collage of artworks of various horror icons, including David and the shirtless sax guy from The Lost Boys, and Elvira. A photo of a mural covering one of the interior walls of Lost Souls Pizza. It depicts numerous characters from horror and sci-fi movies, including Laddie from The Lost Boys, Regan from The Exorcist, Gizmo from Gremlins, the eponymous Robocop, and Ash from The Evil Dead. A better photo of the David ceiling art inside Lost Souls Pizza, with a light fixture positioned directly above his head.

Cyberdog is like the Hot Topic of raver goths. (Hard to get photos inside because of the lighting.)
A photo of the exterior of Cyberdog, its entrance flanked by two large silver android statues. A poorly lit photo of the Android DNA Helix statue inside Cyberdog.

I didn’t get around to posting about it last night, but yesterday’s London adventures took place in Camden.
A photo of a city street from the Camden Town train station. A photo of the interior of the World’s End pub in Camden. A photo of a Chinese all you can eat buffet restaurant with a rad as hell dragon statue over the entrance. A photo of a super gothy storefront depicting the words “Dark Angel” and a statue of a mostly naked woman wrapped in black ribbons.

A little bit of London exploration. Also, it fucken wimdy.
A photo of the Imperial War Museum. A photo of a rainy street with a view of the Elizabeth Tower (aka Big Ben) in the distance. A photo of a rainy street with a view of the London Eye in the background. A photo of a sculpture that looks like a multicolored glass d20, with the London Eye in the distance.

I forgot to post this before I left, but Spud is staying in a kitty hotel for the week. What a brave boy 😻

Went outside to water our potted plant and found this little friend!
A photo of a garden hose coiled up in a wire basket. A little brown lizard is hanging out among the coils of the hose. The same lizard from a different angle.

I recently watched the DS9 episode "Statistical Probabilities", and all of the genetically engineered misfits in it had big 90s FMV adventure game energy. I would 100% expect to see them in, for example, the asylum scene in Phantasmagoria 2. Especially Jack (the guy in the front here).
A screenshot from the Star Trek: Deep Space 9 episode "Statistical Probabilities" showing four characters. In the foreground is a mustached man dressed in black, chewing nervously on his fingernail. Behind him, a woman in red lounges on a bench, and a second woman in a Starfleet science officer's uniform is in mid-conversation with an older man in grey.

*Monarch voice* THE DREADED CANDIRU!
A screenshot of Erritis's character sheet from Torment: Tides of Numenera. He has equipped an item called "Candiru", which gives him increased damage in exchange for a reduction in his Endurance and Healing skills.

Doctor Spud continues to keep a close eye on me to ensure I don’t overwork myself while I’m recovering.

I found @edwyntiong.com!
A screenshot from Torment: Tides of Numenera, showing a party of four player characters standing in a city square. To the right of the party, the game cursor is highlighting an NPC to show the name "Omahdon" above his head.

Please enjoy this picture of a pug, which always cheers me up.
A black pug lying on a wooden bench, facing the camera. Its head is tilted to one side and its pink tongue is sticking WAY the hell out of its mouth in a truly epic blep.
