HALLOWEEN MAKE-UP AT REBECCA RYTHER

Every year this celebration seems to catch on that bit more and now in the UK, it appears to be on the same sort of scale as in the United States.

We were leaving Waterloo for Ascot pretty early, and Waterloo isn’t too far from London’s ultimate foodie paradise; Borough Market. We just had to give Maria's Market Cafe a visit! Maria has been serving up good honest grub to market goers and traders for over 50 years; she is a borough market legend!
