Evolution :-)

I recently had an angry shop keeper incident in Val Thorens, French Alps.

 

I was on the public road looking in the window looking at the amusing sweatshirt designs and toying with the idea of buying one.

 

This one appealed to me as a snowboarder, although if I designed it I would insert an extra step before the boarder... A Skier :-) Or maybe the skier would go as stage 3... :o)

 

I decided to take a snap with my phone camera to show some of my friends who hadn't seen the shop... The shop keeper got rather irate and banged on the window shouting something or other.

Unfortunately my French is not up to having an argument, or pointing out that I was on a public street (or the irony that some of the same shirts were shown on fliers pinned all over the town).

 

He did however lose sales as I didn't bother going in, and neither did any of my friends I told later.

 

Sorry about the image quality, it's only a little phone camera, all be it a pretty good one. I only uploaded it onto Flickr to share in the photography is not a crime group.
