Lunch on the hoof. by happypat

Lunch on the hoof.

This is a very popular deli in Garstang but it's so small.....only seating about eight people so you take your chance!

No wonder this girl is eating on the hoof!

Three good things:
1. The smell of the Hawthorn blossom in the hedges as you walk past.
2. Hake at half price in Booths.
3. Harry has mown the grass verge round my roadside B&B sign ......Bank holiday & no one in but not surprising if they can't see the sign!
This works so well in b/w! Hope you get some folk in for B&B. (I'd come if it wasn't so far!!!)

@beryl thank you Beryl.......I don't often do b/w so glad you like it!

@happypat This is good as there is enough contrast between the b/w ,strong , bold and not wishy washy !! Like you I must admit on the whole I prefer colour -- but this is good !!

Great shot for B&W.. I 1st read it as Lunch on the roof.. trying to work it out.. got it after I reread it..

Oh the nuns wouldn't approve of that! You can put your feet up for bank holiday :0)

Great B&W shot.

@judithg you can say that again Judith.......no eating in the street & how right they were!
May 2nd, 2014  
Great shot! That's a bit like the Kilted Frog not far from us. Hardly any sitting in space and always busy....good sign!
I'm with Hazel.....would come if it wasn't so far!!! Enjoy the peaceful weekend!

Oh if only I'd known - we might have come for the weekend! Nice b&w shot.

This sort of photo would look good in colour as well! Looks to be a specialty shop and popular. Our new organic shop that has just opened is so expensive - one beetroot for $2 when you can get a big bunch for $2 at the Farmers Market! Do you get a lot of custom from people travelling past?

@sarah19 @quietpurplehaze
You would both be so welcome!

Great capture! Spoke to someone from Garstang. A contractor called John White? given our details by Brabys contractors?? Do you know them?
May 2nd, 2014  
@busylady you too Judith!!

@maggiemae not that much these days maggiemae but none while the sign is hidden! Most of my guests are long standing of many years but have had some new ones lately. Quite a few booked over the summer....the other lady in the village has recently died although she reckoned she was very quiet ........I don't like being too busy these days as the old brain is slower & I tend to forget to put the sugar on the table!

I hope you manage to get some b&ber's in over the bank holiday.
Lovely shot in b&w :)

I love these little places and always try to seek one out rather than give the Starbucks and Costas business. Nice shot.

@barrowlane Rabys Contractors Rob......yes we do know that name but don't know the name John White.....there are quite a few contractors around Garstang area....small world!
May 2nd, 2014  
Fabulous contrasts here

A great ad shot, and perfect in B/W
May 3rd, 2014  
A great B&W the deli looks very cozy!
May 3rd, 2014  
Nice shot. It tells a story and excellent choice for b&w.
May 3rd, 2014  
nice candid shot!
May 3rd, 2014  
Great shot

I like the b&w. Chemo brain kept reading that she was eating on the 'roof'. For life of me couldn't see the roof! Oh dear 😝
May 3rd, 2014  
Wonderful photo, the intense busy waitress tells the story.
May 3rd, 2014  
Great street shot, always so interesting. Hope you get a last minute B&B-er!
May 3rd, 2014  
Love it - most particularly in b&w. Sounds like you have a long weekend to yourself. Enjoy.
May 3rd, 2014  
Great candid shot
May 3rd, 2014  
This really suits b&w! I like your "eating on the hoof" phrase. I've never heard it. Here we say, "eating on the go".
May 3rd, 2014  
A wonderful B&W candid shot! :)
May 3rd, 2014

Great street capture. I'd like to see a crop with a bit more of the signage above and to the left.
