Down to the Barbican for email, and in J's case magazines. They're having a book sale as well, and we, naturally, cannot resist and end up buying a travel book and a biography of Thomas Merton - unfortunately hardcover.

Docklands light railway to the ASDA at Crossharbour where we acquire an ASDA UK sim card. Texts 4p and calls 8p, which is better than bouncing everything through Cyprus - although not as good as Cypriot rates. The sim card is free. The lady at the electronics counter is very kind - they're sold out but she finds a card without a package and eventually comes up with a package to scan for the price.
