The Natural History Museum once again plays host to the Shell Wildlife Photographer of The Year 2008 exhibition. A truly delightful way of spending an hour of your time. The above photograph by Wesley Cooper, was a favourite – creative and captures the essence of the animal without showing its face.

London is apparently the most expensive city in the world to eat out in:

According to the new Zagat guide, the average meal in the capital now costs an eye watering £39.09, up 2.9% from last year. In Paris the cost is £35.37, Tokyo £35.10, New York £19.30 and Los Angeles £15.63, for three courses with one glass of wine.

For tasty, huge burgers and classy decor you shouldn’t look further than Automat, an uber-chic Mayfair (London) American diner without the chintz, neon signs and juke boxes one normally associates with such places. Went in for a lunchtime bite the other week and, whilst sadly full of hedge fund suits (it’s Mayfair, what did I expect?), service was prompt, I asked for a rare burger and that is exactly what I got. Truly delicious and the interior designer and chef both get full marks.
