Boat Race enterprise

One of the heartening aspects of events that bring out big crowds, such as the Boat Race yesterday, is the enterprising spirit that goes with it. I live near the river so wondered down. Walking along the River I got to Riverside Studios and opposite them in Crisp Road the Asian teenage daughters of a grocers shop were doing a brisk trade in chicken biryani and lamb kebabs. Delicious. Despite the rain they were doing a brisk trade and they must have made a small fortune. Good for them.
