Thanks for the Yoga update too! Okay you helpful southern folk, I do have a few more things that im interested in hearing about.

Coming from a short cycle away from Broadway Market (London Fields - http://www.broadwaymarket.co.uk/) , Camden Passage (Angel), Ridley Road market, one of the first things we are going to miss about the north is its abundance of small markets is there anything closer than Borough market worth venturing to?

And are there any cinemas or small fringe theatres close to HOP? I know im going to miss the classic Rio cinema (http://www.riocinema.ndirect.co.uk/index.htm) and Arcola Theatre (http://www.arcolatheatre.com/) of Stokie but im sure there must be something in this neck of the woods too?
