It’s nearly that time of year again! We want the second Crisp Sandwich Day to be even bigger than the first, so we’d love to hear from pubs/cafés/takeaways interested in taking part, and anyone can join in by printing off the poster and putting it up somewhere.

Yesterday we went “QR bombing” in London to make sure tourists know about Crisp Sandwich Day and spread the word back home. We visited the Houses of Parliament (apparently there was some fuss going on inside?) and Trafalgar Square, then tried in vain to distract people from the horrors of M&M’s World. Follow the whole afternoon in the Twitter thread.
