The Most British Office in London

Someone chose to put two Union Jack armchairs and an exercise ball in their office window for all of London to see. I spotted this walking past an office block and the arrangement stopped me mid-stride. The chairs are proper wingbacks, upholstered in full flag regalia, flanking a slightly deflated-looking exercise ball that's doing its best to fit in. Someone in that office has a sense of humour, and I'm grateful they put it by the window.

MADEIN -- Nagomi

I know she was only three when she left London, but I like to imagine Nagomi coming back to her place at the end of a hard day, making herself a nice cup of tea, listening to the BBC, and eating a bag of Walker's cheese and onion crisps.
