Camden Market and random act of kindness

Although I have lived in London all my life it is amazing how little I know about it so have decided to become a bit of a tourist while we are still living here.

I had a voucher for a fish pedicure to be taken in Camden Market at Zoola fish so decided to go with a friend to visit and mooch around market.
We went by tube as it goes direct to Camden from Morden and I got a cab into Morden as I was running late.
The cab driver had not yet put on his computer for Computacab so he let me ride for nothing with the proviso of making a donation to RNLI.  But doesn't it make you feel good when someone is just kind for no reason.

We got to Camden and isn't it just lovely and lively, we started in Inverness Street Market which my friend took a picture of as she is from Inverness and then made our way to the Stables Market after having a Chinese buffet including pudding for £6.80 bargain.  I wonder if the prices go up in the summer for the tourists,
The market is full of lovely bronzes of horses as it used to be a horse hospital for horses pulling the barges on the canal.
We got to the fish pedicure place and it was very basic and not at all comfortable.  Sooo we didn't really fancy it but I spotted two young girls who were thinking about so I handed them my vouchers job done no waste and we could carry on mooching around.
I loved the clothes there but only bought some orange oil because Ellen says I need it for cleaning but I don't really know what to do with it.
Would like to go again sometime as well as to Portobello and Spitallfields market.
