Fucking *love* this. As Cyriaque Lamar notes:

This video goes on for approximately eight minutes and has more critical merit than Mortal Kombat: Annihilation.

I am so jealous of Annie Mole's visit to a disused Underground station - this is *exactly* the sort of thing I would love to do. More pics from the Brompton Road Tube Tour on Flickr.

Remember that you are talented and that your talent has value and that ultimately it is up to you to determine how much people value your talent.

An excellent read on pricing for freelance designers, though this excerpt in particular is timeless advice for freelancers across all disciplines.

One of my favourite past-times + one of my favourite tracks = a rather dreamy way to enjoy a cup of tea.

Order: 
Dos Tacos (corn, thus Bash-friendly) with grilled chicken, guacamole, spicy salsa. No dairy.

Verdict: 
Cooled down to just a smidge above tepid on the way back to the office, making the case for eating in. Spicy salsa was warming but not as hot as I'd hoped. I wolfed down my Dos Tacos in dos bocados, so I don't think it would make for a filling lunch on its own. 

Would buy again?
Maaaybe... but only to see if the experience improves when I'm eating at a bustling restaurant, rather than at my desk while reading Feedly.
