Quirk

Some things are just quirky aren't they? Or maybe just weird? Well not so long ago, a little shop I walk past in a small alleyway in London has undergone a transformation. Quite a strange one. See for yourself:


Can you see? There are books piled up in there from floor to ceiling. Since I saw a couple of guys sorting out this funny arrangement a few weeks ago, I've never seen the place open. How strange is that? I think they must have an experiment going on, with a tiny camera monitoring just how many people stop and stare, and how many come back to take a photo...

Funny stuff! Perhaps they have barricaded themselves in until they've read every book? If that's the case I guess they'll be there for a while. x

I love it. And doesn't it drive you mad that you can't see the spines to see what they are? Perhaps they're decorating and have done this rather than cover the windows in newspaper?

An alternative to curtains?

What a great arrangement.....

How fun it would be to have a camera, capturing the reactions of passers by.

Hurrah I can post to your blog again! I too wondered if it was an alternative to net curtains (and a far more useful one!)
