FABELS



Fabels
67 Chiltern Street
London, W1U 6NJ

TWIRL AVAILABILITY: Excellent
TWIRL STORAGE: On shelf
TWIRL PRICE: 65p
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Despite being directly opposite AD Food and despite the road sign (top left), this shop appears to have an address on Chiltern Street rather than Paddington. I've never really understood how addresses for corner properties work.

AD FOOD



AD Food
29 Paddington Street
London, W1U 4HA

TWIRL AVAILABILITY: Excellent
TWIRL STORAGE: On shelf
TWIRL PRICE: 65p
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: This shop is directly opposite Fabels. It was incredible. I stood on the traffic island, took one picture, turned 180° and took the next one. Not surprisingly, both shops sold at the same price, a reasonable 65p.

FOOD & NEWS



Food & News
1A Great Cumberland Place, Marylebone
London, W1H 7AL

TWIRL AVAILABILITY:
Excellent
TWIRL STORAGE: On shelf
TWIRL PRICE: 69p
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Quite expensive. Much to the delight of the guy in front of me, they appear to have a quite extensive range of pornography on offer. They could have put a bit more thought into the name, though.

CHRISTINE'S CONVIENCE STORE



Christine's Convenience Store

132 New Cavendish Street, Marylebone
London, W1W 6YA

TWIRL AVAILABILITY: Excellent
TWIRL STORAGE: On shelf
TWIRL PRICE: 50p!
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: What a bargain! This shop is really nice and seems a bit like it's about fifty years out of date. Like you might go back the next day and find it all boarded up and empty and you'd ask someone what happened to the shop and they'd say "Shop? There hasn't been a shop here for fifty years". The woman who served me was very nice, I hope she was the actual Christine, it would be like meeting a celebrity.
