I know some people who are the same way about Selfridges Food Hall, so there must be something to it. When I go back, I might have to look at (but not necessarily buy something from) Harrod's Food Hall.

Glad to hear that they've fixed the copy - another reason for me to return to the exhibition.

I am not being paid. I am just being honest.

And I bought my daughter the kind of lollipop you can only ever see in kids comics of the nineteen fifties.

They actually exist. But only in Harrods.

I'd never do my weekly shop there. But dammit, if I'm going past I can't not go in their Food Hall for something.

BTW, I understand that a number of your points have been addressed and fixed.

Fair enough, thanks for your honesty. However, you...

Fair enough, thanks for your honesty. However, you'll have to be careful this doesn't turn into an advertisement for Harrods - are they paying you to pimp them? :)

And the only food they have that I want are Krispy Kreme doughnuts, and you can get them from Tesco's ...

I wrote the commentaries but the italics weren't to do with me and I was told there was some retyping. Probably let a couple of typos through though.

The Food Hall changes your attitude to Harrods completely. Grab a sandwich or a pastry, won't cost you much more than at Pret. But they are outstanding. £2.50 for a cornish pasty and they are full to bursting of goodness. Nothing gets skimped. Go on, give it a go...

Nice shifting of the blame, Rich :) The text sounded like you had written it: is that correct?

I might go again to the exhibit, if only to see it when other people are around (there was only one other person there at 12:30 on Sunday afternoon), but I don't know if I could bring myself to buy anything there, even a 50p sausage ...

The type examples you cite weren't anything to do with me...

Some of my fave other bits include the page from Raymond Briggs' Gentlemen Jim, Posy Simmonds' Tamara Drewe, Terry Wiley's Petra Etcetera and From Hell.

BTW, if you go again, do check out the Food Hall. A mini sausage roll is 50p and is heavenly.
