Everyone loves a good vintage market but I bet you've never been to one that floats... If you're in East London over the next few weeks and looking to fit some shopping into your Olympic schedule, head to Mile End and visit the Floating Market on Regent's Canal, where you can pick up books, vintage clothes, hats, handicrafts and loads more. The market is trading until 16 August before it moves to Little Venice in West London from 20 August to 2 September.
There's plenty of food on offer too with cakes, Slovakian dishes and sandwiches to keep you well fed. Some of the traders include vintage hat shop Chapeau Bateau, retro clothes boutique Frocks A Float, glass jewellery specialist The Glass Barge and London's first herbal apothecary in 350 years Herbal Barge. If you fancy getting your hair cut, there's even The Floating Salon!
