Places I would like to visit

Places I would like to visit: Shoreditch Park Garden, Hoxton Trust Community Garden, and off Hackney Road- Ion Square Gardens. St Matthew's Church and the deli in Highbury Fields. Also St Dunstan and All Saints in Stepney. They have a Saxon cross - is this in the churchyard or inside the church?

A music-free cafe in Amsterdam

I sold the very last copy of the first edition of Quiet Amsterdam today- to a neighbour. He also bought a signed copy of Quiet London and we had a short chat about Derek Jarman. I have been reading his journals and share his antipathy to having to endure loud music in restaurants.

There wasn't room to include Cafe 't Smalle in the second edition of Quiet Amsterdam, so I have included a photograph of the exterior here instead.
