An Inadvertent Audience with the Divine Miss Budd
Most Sunday's are a fairly pleasant affair at the shop. Why last week alone Jane and I managed to get chatting to a larger than life fellow who had faked his own death on paper to avoid the Israeli army and now divines angel messages for a living . A few beers, a Sunday Times journalist, a grass roots Barack Obama campaigner, some lovely visiting Swedes, some dream interpretation and a tripped fuse later it was 5:30! How time flies when you're two hours late getting home. Then there are the times that aren't so great, like a few Sundays ago when I caught my shoplifting nemesis. Luckily I was able to retrieve the item but what really gets me is that we only have a few of each handmade item that we stock and some things are complete one offs so when they're gone they are Gone!

This is of particular interest at the moment as we are starting to find our way out of the fast fashion hangover. Now the emphasis is placed more on the rarity, longevity and personal significance of objects and rightly so as our resources are precious.
