My photo's in the London Schmap guide
I've just been informed that a photograph I took in Portobello Road in Notting Hill, west London, has been included in the Schmap London photo guide. You can find the guide here, and the picture in the vegetarian restaurants section accompanying a review of the Grain Shop. That bit of Portobello Road is one I thought was rather characterful (it's further up from the genteel Hugh Grant territory) and I sort of hoped they would include the photo to illustrate that rather than hide it in the restaurant reviews. But the Grain Shop itself is actually somewhere I go in quite a lot and their cakes are rather nice if a bit sweet. You can find the Flickr page for the photo, and my comments about it, here insha Allah.

Congratulations on being picked up by the guide. I've only ever been past Portobello Road on the number 7 bus, on my way to Bayswater; never stopped off to have a wander. Every time i hear the name, i think of the song from "Bedknobs and Broomsticks". :)
Btw, if you have a knack for photography, I recommend that you enter Ijtema.net's photo contest, titled New Year, New Hope.

Congratulations. I had a picture of mine from Berlin added to their new guide.
