Camden Fire


Sorry I haven't posted for a little while. No excuse, just been busy!

A lot of students have written to ask about the fire in Camden. The photos (see the one above from the BBC) were very dramatic and reports around the world seem to be saying that the market had been destroyed. I was in the area on the weekend (taking Ben to London Zoo) and saw that one pub had burned down and a small part of the market needs to be rebuilt. So, for lovers of Camden Market... don't worry! In my opinion the current project of "rebuilding" the market with lots of shops instead of the traditional stalls is much more damaging and is destroying the soul of the place.
I also saw that the old school building, our home for nearly 20 years, is now an art gallery!
