Sunday Sum - 1st December 2024

Hey , welcome back to

The Sunday Summary

, a collection of insights and my behind the scenes from the past week.

🥪 A London experience:Sandwich SandwichCorner of Gresham Street and Aldersgate Street. I've been meaning to try this place for ages, it always has a gigantic queue at lunch, and I can see why!I tried their Christmas sandwich, and it was epic!All sandwiches are about £9.95 but they are gigantic (really struggled to get my mouth around these). The Christmas sandwich is £12.95 and also comes with hot gravy for dipping in!  This is seriously indulgent, ensure you are hungry before coming here.I think I might need to update my Best Sandwich in London video!Spanish ChickenChristmas Sandwich

🎄 My quick gift guide:As we're now in December, I want to give you some inspiration for potential holiday gifts, mostly centred around taxis/transport/London.

City Stack

For the pub lover, City Stack is a £25 special beer mat, that gives you £10 off a £20+ order (food or drink) from some incredible independent pubs across London. Your beer mat can accommodate 10 stamps so there's £100 to be saved from this pack!  It's a great way to discover some new pubs, whilst saving money along the way

I Never Knew That About London (Book) - Christopher WynnThe one single book that has provided the most unique information about London.  Super easy to read and digest, separated by areas of London.  There's no waffle or deep academic history in this book, just raw facts (and not the usual heavily spouted stuff).  The obscure fact I pulled on The Chase about Westminster and Lambeth Bridge?  Well it came from this book!Rather Splendid London Walks: Joolz Guides' Quirky and Informative Walks Through the World's Greatest Capital City - Julian McDonnellI've devoured a lot of "London Walk" books. It's such an overdone genre, and they often duplicate or miss out essential stuff.Joolz Guides' is easily the best, it's beautiful and absolutely packed to the gunnels. This will help you see London in a new light!Airfix Quickbuild London Taxi LEVC TXAirfix were very kind to send me on of these last Christmas, it's a beautiful model with some great detailing. At £14.99 it's a perfect stocking filler and something creative to build on Christmas morning

🎧 On heavy rotation:Espresso - Sabrina CarpenterNot sure how I've gone the whole year without hearing this. But this is a serious ear worm. Love this track!📺 On YouTube This Week:
