Portobello Road, London.
A giant hanging teapot and an old-fashioned taxi - my favorite british combination.
Shortly afterwards I bargained down a pair of 6 pound earrings down to 5. Not because I wanted to be cheap about 1 pound, i just honestly didn’t have it but still really wanted the earrings. The old little lady thought it was the former and said no, but i went back and offered her the difference in euros or dollars. that was how much i wanted them! she said to me, “you’re making me feel very mean,” which in turn made me feel very mean. but i knew i had her then.
as it turned out after i gleefully bought those earrings for 5 pounds, i had a 1 pound coin in my back pocket!
so then i even more gleefully used my last pound to buy these strawberries and they tasted ever so sweet
