Another Hot One and Bank Mystery Shop

Phew - another hot day with an occassional breeze. Did two mystery shops at barclays and RBS as a pretend business set up car valet service. Job was £30 plus expenses and did both in lunchtime. Not bad. Phew! Off to Camden to drop off two jobs and shimmy around there.

Update later.

Camden Lock

Dropped off the work to Outlook Research at Camden Lock,and popped in to see Kate Winslet for a cup of tea. (Ha ha - that pricked up you ears) I wish i had actually. Had a beer at Weatherspoons outside watching the barges go down the locks.Anyway on the way back and over the Camden Lock bridge back down the main road i decided to go back by bus and not the underground to Victoria, Caught a 24 bus and went to the upper deck to peruse the scene as it trundled past Euston,down Bloomsbury Street towards Charing Cross Road and Trafalgar Square ,then past Whitehall to Victoria. A lovely sunny day and a pleasant ride.

Picked up a CD by Terry Edwards for £2 which got reviewed by Wire last year.

Did a mystery shop at an M&B pub in Soho,Berwick Street before going to Camden so killed two birds with one stone in effect.
