WANEY'S FOOD AND WINE

Waney's Food Store
23 Theobald's Road
London, WC1X 8SL


TWIRL AVAILABILITY: Excellent
TWIRL STORAGE: On shelf
TWIRL PRICE: 60p
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: This shop, for something which is described as a "Food Store", seems to have a surprisingly comprehensive range of motoring goods. Windscreen wiper blades, tax disc holders, some other crap. I don't have a car, so I didn't bother remembering the details.

BRITISH LIBRARY

The British Library
96 Euston Road
London
NW1 2DB

TWIRL AVAILABILITY: Excellent
TWIRL STORAGE: On shelf
TWIRL PRICE: 95p
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Twirl information and photo supplied by hencehemmo, who when she first contacted me about the price of Twirls believed they were 70p, which she thought was too expensive ("It makes me angry four times a week. I don't even want a Twirl that often but it makes me spit every time I see them. That's taking the fucking piss"). However, when I asked if she'd mind taking a photo for me to add to the blog, I could not have imagined what would come next. The Twirls in the British Library weren't 70p at all, they were NINETY FIVE PENCE. ("NINETY FIVE FUCKING PENCE" as hencehemmo put it.) Well, all I can say is if that's how much the British Library charge for Twirls, I'm glad I'm illiterate.
