Haven't seen a leather shop. There is a shoe mender with some other stuff on Camden Road, but I didn't check there. I will look in February on my next visit! Despite its reputation I find it a very pleasant town to have as my English retreat and not in the least bit stuffy or disgusted!
Yes, Soutra, quite right. I might have beaten you to it with a comment about the use of 'less' and 'fewer' but when I read the dreadful word I was completely overcome with a fit of the vapours and I have only just recovered.
Now I shall sit in a darkened room and consider the relative merits of attractive men and household chores.
Talking about fit young men have you noticed that today's fit young men are generally hairless. I have it on good authority that they are often hairless all over including their nether regions. What's that all about? I don't like too much hair but fit young men should have a bit of course hair to run ones fingers through surely. Given the option (unlikely) between body hair or a tattoo I'd have the body hair. Oh to be young again oh the wonderful memories.
