Ladies that lunch

brownsoxford.jpg Sometimes your working life provides unexpected pleasures - like my friend Sheelagh. Of course, in fact, she is one of my customers, but I've been working with her for over 10 years now. Thus I was able to go and see her today and it was a pleasure to share a spot of lunch. We went to Browns and here we are with our fish and chips.

After that we went for a short perambulation, during which I felt duty bound to take a picture of the (presumably Victorian) Magdalen Street public conveniences. There are not many of these facilities left these days - councils found they were too difficult to maintain and protect from vandalism so they have filled them with concrete.

To add to my amusement - on my way through St Giles I found the "Gents" - nicely labelled "St Giles Gents", making a suitable matching pair with the one below. I thought a single photographic record was sufficient however.....
