London, UK: Asian music shops?

[jackdaw version]

Instead we had a leisurely family holiday making day trips to Brighton and a few interesting spots in Suffolk, with the not-so-busy coastal town of Littlehampton as our base [ . . . ] I'm a hardy southern coaster. Littlehampton couldn't scare me away. [ . . . ]

I keep thinking you must mean Sussex, not Suffolk. Anyway, sounds like a lovely hols.

[ . . . ] While in London we stayed near the Vauxhall bus-metro-overground station and couldn't help noticing the Royal Vauxhall Tavern. At daytime it looked almost out of operation, but in the evening it is apparently very active. Any of you familiar with the place?

Not to blight the forum with yet another tedious link, but this was interesting to read on the history of the Royal Vauxhall Tavern:

and here's the site for the venue itself and its events:

A "Hot August Fringe" indeed — let's hear it for Global Warming!*

You are right of course. And Sussex was a lovely area not at all familiar to me from previous visits. So is Suffolk though - I've spent two nice summers nearby in Norfolk however.

And thanks, Judith! It seems that my mind is only slowly making its way from the real thing to the "Virtual Britannia" here...
