We found a little tiny secondhand store full of furniture... and i mean full, it was 2 shopfronts... piled to the ceiling with stuff, so full in fact that the only are to walk was a 5 foot long 1 foot wide path into the shop,from there you peered over/around stuff to see if anything useful.
Surprisingly we saw from outside through the window a little cupboard thing, just what wee needed apparently. Nic goes in and asks "mad old woman" how much... mad old woman says 8 pounds.. ha we think... perfect and cheap. Righto says we, we will take that thanks...
Oh NO! says mad old lady... im not getting that out, its much to dangerous.
Momentarily Nic and i are speechless... well i am... Nic slightly less so, and very politely advises the mad old lady that we wish to buy it and take it... again.. mad old lady says nope... nic asks how she manages to do business if she doesnt actually sell anything... mad old woman tells us she does quite well thanks very much!
We exit shop... confused, and without cupboard...sigh.. i still dont quite understand???
