For weeks I've been saying that Thursday morning I would go over to East London to the Spitalfields antique market. So this week I finally got my act together and did it. Looking on the website, it said that it opened at 8:00 am but they were still setting up when I arrived after 9:00.
I was hoping to do a little Christmas shopping but once I got there I realized that the only person who likes all these old odds and ends is me!!! So I bought myself these vintage winter tea cups and saucers. Perfect for a Christmas cuppa.
After work I met Jerry and Jules to go see their flatmate Sophie in a concert. They sang Monteverde's Magnificat II from Selve Morales e Spirituale and Handel's Dixit Dominus in cast that means anything to anyone. They were quite good. The group is London Lawyer Music but I found out that they do have members from other professions.
Afterwards we went to the pub down the street. One of the women there was a patent lawyer currently working on a case where a Korean man is trying to get a UK patent for something she called "training pants" for men but I'm not sure what they train you for. I thought it was about bed wetting but she talked about how you can control them by how fast you walk!! I wish I'd gotten a photo of her little fast walking pants demonstration.
This outfit made me miss Bill. Bill would have livened it up with a pocket square.
I made sure to get a selfie but none of us are looking our best here. You'll be seeing lots more of Jerry and Jules this weekend as they are minding me while Bill is away.
