A great morning workout at AllStarsBoxing Gym on the Harrow Road, a multi-cultural HQ where friends are made daily. Trump and Farage would hate the place. Even the music played while we work out reflects different segments of modern society. 🥊

93c Cafe might be the most delicious cafe food I have eaten in outside of Italy. If in the Finchley area of north London do pop by! It is terrific. Totally yummy. 😋 I cannot believe such warm, yummy food is available at such fair price. The cappuccino is delicious too, smooth and robust.☕️
