Droidcon 2016, Islington, London - 27th October 2016

Nosher's at the total nerd-fest that is Android Developer Conference "Droidcon 2016", held just off trendy Upper Street in Islington, London. It's a brutal 5.00am start though, to get there in time for a 9.15am registration, and it's a salutory reminder that doing rush hour on poxy commuter trains with no seats and a million passengers is an unpleasant experience.
