Street Life by rich57

Street Life

This is street life, 365 style. Only bought the cupcake as a prop...Pickles & Potter is now Love Rouge Bakery. I ended up here because Mia and her friends wanted to go out for a milkshake but with no adults. I agreed but sat in the next cafe along the road to wait for them. Was in such a rush with work and school run I sat outside to cool down. Took the opportunity to get a few snaps to stop myself fretting for too long!

Ps. I did bring myself to eat the cake eventually.

Oh and coffee (strong latte) 8.5/10, cake (strawberry cheesecake cupcake) 7/10, loos 8/10 and staff (v friendly 7/10)
i was about to ask if you ate it because i would've virtually bitch slapped you if otherwise

nice shot mate.. is that woman wearing an extemely short skirt behind ya latte or just flesh coloured spray-on trousers ?
March 2nd, 2012  
Tasty.
March 2nd, 2012  
Oh well, it would have been rude not to eat the cake really!
March 2nd, 2012  
@andycoleborn Haha I just knew you'd spot that! Almost put it in the commentary! Yeah short skirt mate.

OMG @grecican almost just made me spit my latte out!! Too bad I don't have this cupcake to go with...and yeah what is up with that girl's skirt haha!?
March 2nd, 2012

March 2nd, 2012  
Mmmmm .... It's a picture I'd love to be in. ;-)
March 2nd, 2012  
Good score!! Did Mia score the milkshake? And it would be rude not to eat the props.
March 2nd, 2012  
@fueast You're just jealous of those young legs!
March 2nd, 2012  
@judithg Actually my legs are one thing that have aged quite well! Compared to the rest
March 2nd, 2012  
@judithg She was too busy chatting to her date! They're only nine! What's the world coming to...
March 2nd, 2012  
Great shot....love all the attached stories!
March 2nd, 2012  
@rich57 Awww - did you have your zoom lens trained on that milkshake shop?!
March 2nd, 2012  
@judithg No I was round the corner! I did want to give them a bit of freedom and they were chaperoned by ten classmates!
March 2nd, 2012  
@rich57 You mean you didn't march in, insist on shaking hands with the young man and tell him loudly that you don't expect snogging before year 6. It's what all good dads do!
March 2nd, 2012  
Nice shot,I'm sure it wasn't such a hardship to eat that cake!!
March 2nd, 2012  
Awww, tough job being a dad! you have to eat cupcakes and everything! Oh, and photograph bare naked ladies' legs!
March 2nd, 2012  
Useful review, they don't do anything savoury though, I don't think?
Great idea, I've just poured a large glass of red wine as a prop of course, just don't think I can be arsed to pick a camera up!
March 2nd, 2012  
@karlo57 Haha. Yeah I'm doing the same with a beer right now!
March 2nd, 2012  
Umm this looks so yummy
March 2nd, 2012  
yummo!!
March 2nd, 2012  
Oh now that looks seriously delicious
March 2nd, 2012  
This really is a great street scene shot! Could be in Berlin, too. Looks like the loos were better than the cake and stuff but not as good as the Latte ;)
March 2nd, 2012
