Tucked away down St Edward's Passage, just opposite King's College is a little red shop. It started life as an ale house but now specialises in very expensive early editions of Enid Blyton, Beatrix Potter and other children's books. You'll be able to pay a great deal of money for an @helenmoss book in there in fifty years time!
Obviously is has a ghost - guess what - a white lady smelling faintly of violets spotted on the stairs now and again. Disappointing - I was hoping for a glimpse of a spectral Willy Wonka.
When I first looked at this I thought it was some sort of vehicle, but what I thought was a wheel was an extractor fan! I think I am still a bit tired from yesterday!
This is such a cool shot..I love the red of it ! All those tempting books in the window , how could you pass this by ? I could spend all day in here , great capture ! I was wondering if it has a floor under the pavement as I can see an expel-air fan !
@samdan@happypat That fan's annoying - I should have had a go at it with Photoshop!! I hadn't thought about a basement - not many places in Cambridge have them as we're on sea level but The Rainbow Restaurant round the corner is underground so I think it could have.
I really love this shot! Love the red. Hello by the way! Sorry I've not been commenting lately. I still look through your pics when I can! The other side of the world is keeping me somewhat occupied.
