From where I'm sitting…

We moved offices over the weekend. The new one is absolutely amazing. Here, for example, is the view from the gym.

Central St Giles - View from Floor 9

It’s a 22 minute walk from our flat, which is pretty great. I can even see our block of flats from my desk. And St Pancras. And the roof of the British Museum.

Possibly more important, considering how much time I spend in the office, is the number and variety of things within a 5 minute walk of where I’m sitting right now:

• The British Museum
• The Institute of Historical Research
• Royal Mile Whiskies
• Chipotle (not Chilango, but oh well)
• The London branch of Blackwell’s Books (yay!)
• The best coffee in London (Monmouth)
• A pool.
• An okonomiyaki restaurant.
• The Lowlander (Belgian beer!)
• Bar Polski (vodka shots!)
• A sauna (really – nsfw)
• James Smith & Sons – an awesome umbrella shop.
• Paramount (bar on 34th floor of Centre Point with amazing views)
