marking time

 The morning started absolutely sodden..but thankfully the wind had abated.

Getting up isn't easy on a grey morning as sunrise becomes later and later...but on the commute to the gallery the sun peeked through the clouds!!

It was a long and chilly day...with one sale after three quarters of an hour....and noone from just after four until 4.28 when two women mooched in...mooched around.,.and sloped off, all without saying a word!!

One feels rather deflated after a day  like that!  The high point was restocking my section of the card stand, as they are selling slowly but steadily.

Onward to tomorrow!!!

That's good you restocked your card stand and that they are selling.

I'm glad your cards are selling. I must admit, I often mooch around in shops and then slip out without saying anything!

I would have thought that part of going into a gallery was the experience of engaging with one of the creators - mooching doesn't really cut it. Were they just escaping weather?

no, weather was ok

in a lot of shops that is ok...but a small gallery with one person manning it....a "good morning/afternoon then Thanks on the way out maybe?
I think spending time in France (and NZ) has possibly made me more aware of the lack of it here, especially with " visitors"
