Got your fingers in too many pies? Too many plates spinning? Wearing too many hats?

Belter of a story this is - ‘wars of Borough Market’
I've spent this past week a little baffled by the story of the bakery in Borough Market that says it's been asked to leave because it's too successful. Could that really be the case?
The answer, as ever, is complicated. My first story for @_TheLondoner

It's the most sought-after spot for a London food business. So who gets to stay in Borough Market? And who should have to go?
That debate got heated last week when Bread Ahead said it had been asked to leave. So we did a deep dive into what's going on.
If you haven't read this wild ride of a story by @AndrewKersley yet, you might want to do it now. Because part 2 of the saga is out today...
Goldie Saloon was one of London's hottest queer bars. Then it mysteriously shut and its social media was taken over by an Essex dog groomer.
Finding out why unveiled an insane saga of mummified cats, secret deals and a man called “the demon twink”.

The dream of the '90s is alive in... Clerkenwell?
Amid a spate of new openings, awards and a visit from Charli XCX herself, Lucy Kenningham spoke to businesses, office workers, diners, @jimmy__mcintosh and @EmilyThornberry to find out what's driving the neighbourhood's new era.

Last year, the government said that driverless taxis would hit London streets by this spring.
@AndrewKersley spent two weeks getting the inside story of why they haven't. It's a saga of infighting at TfL, tech hiccups and a power struggle in City Hall.

I will be speaking at this because it is possible I have A Problem with starting too many side projects. 😂

The City of London has a "palette". According to councillor @ShravanJoshi it's "conservative and tasteful". What would palettes for the other boroughs look like? ft.com/content/32aac474-952c…
