I didn’t have a camera with me when I went for an appointment, but had my iPad, not a very effective means of taking photographs for me! But I liked the look of this old sign (Peterkin, who was he?), not very well captured, and the idea of a ‘story coffee’
Further along the journey, I saw this and liked the blackboard:

Sue-nice take on the theme – and glad you had the iPad to capture the essence and overall feel of the sign and shops on your transport
the “story coffee” really is a good name and a lot of nice details here to explore 🙂
PS this post inspired me to join in to the challenge
Oh, excellent, Yvette…look forward to seeing what you come up with!
I almost went with shop windows and a similar theme to yours – but I found a blue pool water photo and it reminded me of the quote – because I took “many many pictures” I had a blue image like that –
Okay – good day to you and thanks again for the idea
And have a good day today 😊😊😄

I really liked the top photo. As a kid my grandfather read to us from “The Peterkin Papers,” a very funny book. Glad for the chance to remember that from seeing the sign on the bricks.
Oh, brilliant!
I liked these Sue. Old signs captured. I regret some that I didn’t take at the time and now have gone
And I could say the same, Brian
I found this for you.

Ghost signs are great! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
Oh, brilliant! Thanks, Pete, I wished I could have got the whole sign, but it was not to be….well done for finding!
Thanks Pete – great to learn a bit of the history
Pete came up trumps for this one!
Your ipad took some great photos 😀
Thanks, Cee!
Glad you had the iPad, Sue. Not something I’ve ever used to take a photo, but they’re good for displaying them on. You’ve done well using an unwieldy instrument, and looks a good area to wander around on foot
or wheel!
When I feel braver!
I would say it would be
– over to you!kk
Peterkin? A relation of Skwirrel Nutkin? 🙂 🙂
Who knows?
how fabulous you did have a means of capturing what you saw – of course if you had an iphone!!!!!
Don’t you start,!
Sorry, couldn’t resist!
You’re not sorry at all!
Don’t make me laugh!!
You need to control yourself, Becky!
I know!
😄😄
