      Cheers! Was hoping the light would be right when I passed, and happily it was pretty much perfect.

      Thank you. Had to wait a little while for someone to turn up and browse, but happy with the result.

    What a perfect opportunity, and well taken advantage of.
    What is it that makes some folk stand with their hands behind their back – it’s never seemed a natural thing to do to me.

    If I were you I’d be back to that store to buy that book centre stack, fourth shelf up, dead centre. It has radiating rays emanating from the top of its spine. Must be a sign 🙂

      Haha, could be. The shops in that area really are full of some wonderful surprises.

      Cheers. It’s in Jimbocho. Down one of the side streets off the main road.
