Tonight, in an effort to feel less yecchy after my journey, I went in search of vegetarian fare.  I was looking for a place called Core restaurant which got good reviews online.  I wandered up and down various streets near the Edgware Rd. tube station until I noticed a discrete sign saying “Core” that I’d walked past like 50 times.  Unfortunately it was closed by that point.  Fortunately, I found a nearby middle eastern restaurant and had a delicious tomato soup and veggie salad.  The people working there all spoke French – not sure what nationality they were.  The big Football (Soccer to you Yanks) game was on Telly, with French commentary.  Game was between Manchester United and some other team.  The guys in the shop were obviously Manchester fans.  During the 45 min or so I was there, one goal was scored by Manchester, which for Soccer is the equivalent of seeing Halley’s Comet appear.
