The "Oh, My Goodness" Moment

I was doing the late shift at work (we open until 9pm over the Festival) and I got talking to a customer who started off by complaining, jokingly, that I hadn't warned him he might get lost in the shop! He was a rather good looking black man, wearing a beret that made him look as if he'd just stepped out of a 1950s Parisian jazz club. As he left, Chris came in and said "Wasn't that Ben Okri?"
Oh, my!

Earlier in the day, a photographer from the Guardian came in and asked if he could take a few photos. He was in the foyer just at the same time as a family with a rather elegant looking whippet, who may be appearing on the Guardian website even now.

Meanwhile, Red Indigo seem to have lost their blimp.
