Did a little shopping that took ages. I didn't think it would be so difficult to find a red thong but I visited eight clothes shops of which only two had red thongs. Finally got one in New Look.

Then I tried using Open Street Map to find a café. That took a while too partly because I'm choosy but also because all those with promising names seem to be closed or have been transmuted into some kind of restaurant.

And now I'm in Leah's Bistro which isn't even on the map but was encountered en route.

Had an excellent mocha and a very nice slice of cake. The mocha was in a glass too!

I didn't notice until the cake was almost finished that it had little golden decorations

In the Craft Brewed pub for the third time. My favourite pub/café in Maidstone. Having a pint of very nice dry cider and a beef brisket sandwich.



Forgot to mention the first time I was here that the password for the WiFi is Norway17. It commemorates the place and year the proprietors had their honeymoon :-)

Everywhere I go I see and hear references to Norway. I do wonder what it is that makes the place so visible and so popular. Of course it could simply be that I am primed to notice such references rather than, for instance, references to Germany; but it doesn't feel like it.
