This really is just fucking silly at this point
Snuck out to Cancer Research shop this morning - £11
Back with Saturday’s finds - approx £85
One shop (independent) was £77, I go there once a month and always come out with a bulging bag of books
I tend to zero in on what I’m looking for and not really pay attention to what else is on a stall, so as I was browsing some DVDs I was listening to the two male sellers waft on negatively about tattoos and piercings, just kinda stood there with the one DVD I wanted to buy, my tattoos and piercings on show, wondering wtf they were on about. When they finally stopped so I could ask the price (10p), I gave one of the guys 20p and as I waited for my change I casually looked at the rest of the stuff on the table. It was all Reform merch. There were fucking teddy bears with Reform T-shirts on. I just stood there staring at these fucking bears, not wanting to touch one but desperately wanting to know where it was made, and after about 20 seconds of waiting I realised the guy wasn’t coming back with any of my change, so I gave up walked off (it was 10p, I couldn’t be arsed with asking for it).
And that is how the Greens now have an unexpected £20 extra in their pot this morning.
