stops
In May 1662 Samuel Pepys stood in front of a church in Covent Garden and watched the first Mr Punch on record in England. Start at that church, whose grand front door is a fake, and walk to the market hall a minister saved by listing nearly 250 buildings, to the opera house whose audience rioted for more than two months over the price of a seat, and to the Seven Dials pillar, which has only six dials. Then step into the yard where a wholefood shop's workers lifted sacks by jumping out of a window, and end in the lane where the poet John Dryden was beaten for a poem he probably didn't write.
