Devi's, Maltby Street Market

Tucked away in a little road by the railway arches near Bermondsey is Maltby Street Market, a nest of street food stalls, restaurants and a handful of authentic antique shops, complete with creepy items in stock (pretend heads from the London Dungeon, anyone?).

We popped down on Sunday, to visit newcomers Devi's, an Indian food stall which, as well as selling delicious vegetarian food (with just the right level of spice), is raising money to build free schools for girls in rural India.

We went for the 'very good vara pau', a potato bhaji in a sweet brioche bun, oh and a chocolate brownie from the much-too-tempting Bad Brownie stand..

Citadel Festival, Victoria Park

On Sunday I went along to Citadel, a new one day festival in Victoria Park, east London.

The site follows the same layout as Lovebox, but the atmosphere is much more relaxed, with vintage stalls, gypsy jewellery stands and indie music.

My favourites for the day had to be Bombay Bicycle Club, who had not one, but three surprises for the audience, showering us and themselves with streamers and glitter.

Bear's Den were amazing too, though the hot weather had me melting while I tried to watch them, at least until I had some delicious bubble tea!

On the headphones: Anya Marina

I first fell in love with Anya Marina's music years ago, after seeing her perform at a tiny festival in my hometown. Her distinctive voice has such an intimate feeling to it, whilst her beautiful melodies have a slight rock'n'roll edge. You may not know the same, but you'll recognise at least one of her tunes from their appearances in Twilight and Grey's Anatomy.

I hadn't thought about her in years, until this week when I was searching for a similar name and she popped up! Turns out the songstress has a new record coming out, with a PledgeMusic campaign to fund it. She's already reached her target, so no pressure, but if you fancy having a little browse around, head over here.

In the meantime, enjoy this lovely number from her debut record:

Calling Festival, Clapham Common

So I cleverly spent last weekend's unbelievable (even for July) heat outdoors, wearing many layers of sunscreen of course. Heading over to Clapham Common, there was Calling festival going on, with my Swedish favourites from many years ago, The Hives performing a typically charismatic and energetic set. Amazingly, they even wore their sharp white suits, so I can't imagine how hot they must have been! (Actually, I can. As singer Pelle, stated onstage, it was only fairly hot. Then The Hives played and it was VERY hot).

The highlight of the day was hotly tipped rockers Wolf Alice, who headlined the second stage with their melodic grunge-pop. Considering Noel Gallagher was about to step onto the main stage, they pulled in quite a crowd, with the centre dancing away through their whole set.

Things to do: Rooftop Cinema

The weather has been unbelievably warm this week, hasn't it? If you aren't cowering indoors, wearing factor 50 and trying desperately not to overheat, you may want to take advantage of our all-too-short summers and try Rooftop Cinema.

With four locations around central London, the company shows a mix of classic and new releases, with seating on comfy deckchairs (waterproofs to be provided in case of sudden downpours). There's drinks and snacks available to buy, and you also get a beautiful look over London from the heights of your chosen cinema.
