the east end







the east end is funny. plenty of interesting characters about.

i swerved over to the east end for a coffee or two this morning.
a quiet little italian place that i know.


first up
a double espresso to wake me up.







next up
a caffe latte for my breakfast.







afterwards as i left, i was stopped in the street about two steps out of the door.

" 'ere mate... you wanna buy some birds ? "
some geezer trying to sell me a brace of pheasants on the street at 9 in the morning.

i politely declined but asked him if i could take a photo

"there you go my son" he said.
i took two frames then he strode into the coffee shop and shouted out to the customers
"pheasants anyone ?"


you couldn't make it up.
