[QUOTE="Van_Poperin, post: 4251128, member: 16501"]My last visit to Spitalfields on Thursday, though I may go again it won’t be like it was (a short journey!). You can tell the last lockdown hit them hard, I usually [I]never[/I] pay ticket price on anything, but that day nobody offered any discounts at all and my meagre funds were gone pretty quickly. I didn’t ask for any deals, I figure my money helps keep them around, and still perfectly happy with what I got. Included is one photo from before lockdown and the junk and paper trays from Thurs. really going to miss that place - if you don’t know about it and you’re in London I highly recommend!

Some will note there’s also a corgi in the mix, about to put him in the doggo group :) Won’t post the slides... they’re going in my “colourful” collection and are not for general consumption! ;)[/QUOTE]
