Today was the vegan fair in London. I rocked up first at half ten and bought cupcakes and ordered my ice cream to collect later. My friend and I weren't hungry then, so we decided to go to the Shakespeare exhibition at the BM and come back later for lunch. When we did return, at one, the hall was thronging with people. We bought rainforest boxes full of amazing salads and sat in the square and ate them. We then split a Ms Cupcake Ferrero Roche cupcake and it was amazing. Later on I got to meet new vegan friend Sally who I'd been speaking to online for three weeks since being virtually introduced by a mutual friend.
What was very noticeable at the fair was that there is no typical vegan. As much as my friend and I joked we could play a drinking game based on tie dye and dreds, there were people from all different backgrounds. Sally pointed out the middle aged 'National Trust' contingent and there were lots of healthy children running around. Who'd have thought there were so many vegans in London?
