Street Market

I was walking back to the office from Hackney this lunchtime and grabbed a couple of quick shots of the daily market that can be found along Bethnal Green Road.

It's a standard market found in this part of London, various stalls offering fruit & veg, bedding & towels, CDs etc... Bethnal Green Road also has its fair share of Pound stores, as these two behind the stall show..

But the best news of the day is tickets booked for 2 weeks in Rajasthan in April..

Excellent news on the hols - looking forward to some colourful pics. Great pound shops pic - I've started collecting them for a set on Flickr - haven't got many yet (and mainly chains) - these are wonderfully ramshackle.
