walking in the city

Monday 8 February 2010: Gutted

I don't know why this sight makes me sad; there are about a gazillion fruit markets in this neighbourhood, plus I didn't even like the owner of this place. The one and only time I dropped in there, wearing a heady mix of patchouli and clove--a concoction that normally has men flocking around--the dude said, "are you sick? are you on medication? you stink." I told him in no uncertain terms that his wife is one very unlucky lady, left my unpaid purchases on the counter and walked out.

Ps. Chuckle. That was years ago. I guess I never quite got over it.

  2. I can see that! Funny how little comments can really stick.
    Thanks for your comments and the compliment :) Super nice of you.
    Dad tried to be cool with his hair and his bike etc. Inside he was mush which is why he drank so much. Oh dear.
