I Love Columbia Road

Peter Bjorn and John – Young Folks

I love where I live. It’s a pleasant walk to Borough, and a not-too-long-not-too-short walk to Spitalfields, Brick Lane, and Columbia Road.

The problem with living where I live, however, is that it’s not so convenient for everyone else. (Or well, at least the everyone else that I know.) So despite my best efforts to rally the troops for a trip to Columbia Road the other Sunday, I wandered over alone.

But I can understand why no one would want to go to Columbia Road on a Sunday. Because there’s really nothing to see there. I mean, I suppose there are some flowers.

And I guess there are some cupcakes, and I know no one likes those.

Oh, and olives and cupcakes just DON’T mix.

And who wants to hear live music on a Sunday?

Or look at boring old antiques?

Yes, not a very exciting day, for sure.
