It was Saturday in Canden Town, which meant I didn’t have to go far to be in the midst of all the action at the weekend Camden Markets. Thousands descended on what was one of the largest market complexes I have seen – everything from tiny stalls to massive stores throbbing with music. The whole main street of Camden was overflowing with bargains (if you weren’t Australian) in the way of food, everything from Indian to French patries and English pub specials, clothes, jewellery, antiques, furniture and gifts.
It took us – myself and some friends from home I had met p with – a few hours to wander through, though we emerged rather reluctantly empty-handed. It was a quiet, sunny afternoon which I ended with a movie, Die Hard 4.0, in one of the biggest cinemas I have even seen (I missed Bruce Willis by only a few days, damn it), and anticipation of heading out of the city the following morning.
