Hanging with buskers.

Went into town with Mel after a good old bacon, egg and bean sarny. After buying City of God and walking out of HMV, heard the most amazing sound. I was totally captivated by the instrument this fella was playing. I was stood for a good few minutes in awe. It's played with mainly your thumbs it seems, in a similar way you play the bongos.

I later did some research and found it is called a Hang Drum. It originates from Switzerland, despite its very Eastern sound. I'd love to buy one, but they seem to cost around £900... Gulp.
