Somehow I missed it was my go.  Drink!

Since I can't go to Gondor, I'll go to White City.

Wait, Gondor is the White City, so Gondor it is. :D

Don't look at me. I've never read LoTR nor have I seen the films.

So my move has to be:
Barking

Oh, no, I know what I meant.  Gondor is the White City. :)

Barking! Barking? It fits the bill. :)

The rain at the moment. It woke me at 04:30.
So I will paddle down the street to Little Venice. Paddington overground 
station.

Well, Elephant & Castle is the obvious choice after that thread.  So I'm 
going to go to Tooting Bec to change it up a bit.

Piece of advice:  Do not, under any circumstances, put creme de menthe on 
popcorn. :)

Good move. Elephant & Castle was a bit too obvious.

Yeah, I've tried it.  Not that particular one, but there was a "specialty 
popcorn shop" in Minneapolis when I was a kid, and I really wanted to try 
that flavor - my parents thought it was a bad idea, but bought it anyways.

It was just *nasty*.

Toothpaste, the type you bought because it was cheap and you are too 
mean to throw it away.

No idea why people drink it.
