Exeter was blooming lovely, yesterday!
In Southernhay, all the Crocuses (or it can be Croci!) looked beautiful, around the trees.
Jenni Flower was another reminder that Spring is almost with us.
And here, below, is one of my favourite parts of Exeter, behind the Cathedral.
Look carefully and you can just see the Cathedral.
Ah...and here is a shopper, well pleased with his purchase...well actually it's his birthday present and guess where it's from?
The Apple store!
You get this very 'tasty' bag... so that you can then walk around Exeter looking like a right plonker! LOL!
There's an 'apple' logo on the bag...great advertising eh?
It was as we were walking along Southernhay, when suddenly dear Mr S shouts out,
'Hey, look at this, look at this, look at this...!'
I thought Christmas had come.
In the gutter, were loads of 1p coins...so..
There he is, apple rucksack on his back, scrabbling around, in the gutter, like a man on a mission!
He always finds money when we go out! Always.
I laughed so much that I forgot to take out the camera!
But that's not all. He also found three 5ps in other parts of the city.
Sometimes, if we don't spend anything , we actually come home in profit!!
(Well I don't...my History teacher always told me to 'look up'!!! I never find anything!)
Anyway, it's all good fun and as you can see, I have a man who provides well for me! ;-)
Last year, I didn't even have to go to the bank to get a float for the V&H Fair!
That's how good he was!
(I might loan him out... for a small fee!)
Moving on..
It's the year of the bag, for blokes, that is!
Here are two 'very keen' shoppers making their way to the city, from Central station.
If you look to the right, next to the dark blue shop is Habitat,where Joe works!
(Josie Mary blog)
We called in and had a lovely chat with her.
Next stop was Ottos.
And then came the haggling bit!
I'm sure it is not normal practice to haggle in shops
but Otto Retro is a junk shop and the guy in charge was not sure about the price of these chair backs!
Thus he asked me for some ridiculous amount of money.
'You have to be joking,' said I!
'But people make these into cushions' said he.
(Cor, he's very wised up for a bloke eh?)
As you can see, I beat him down!
What a day!
I hope your Saturday was as much fun as ours and that you laughed as much as we did!
