No, bought a pipe there, but no tobacco.
That's the fellow! He's still there - surprising really as the rent/lease for the Covent Garden units must be pretty high

London is a blast, I was surprised how friendly people were being a big city and all. When I was there in 09 you could get a pint of Samuel Smiths pumped by hand for 2 pounds. That was $3 and is a steal in a big city. Granted it is a little weak as in watery. But for $3 you cant complain. And when in London you have to go to Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese. 145 Fleet Street
London. The lower levels are from the 1300's. You will notice people were a lot shorter back then. Watch your head. BUT they are NOT OPEN SUNDAY. Most of that area of London is shut down on Sundays. Found that out the hard way heading over for round number 2........oh and when asking for 2 beers you dont show your index and middle finger palm toward you (reverse victory). That does not mean 2!!!!
