No one knows why its called B&Q. But it is. My local store has closed down, it would appear, so I had to go to a neighbouring town' s newly opened superstore. It is the most massivest B&Q and I bought the most teeniest pot of paint.
This made me smile.

There they were, a group of friends, and one salesman in a neighborhood shop for trendy clothes. Why the purchaser need so much help in choosing a pair of jeans, we'll never know. But I peeped through the window and took various shots of this scene. This shot is missing yet another young woman, who is hidden by the salesman. They have such different expressions...
The store, which sells "High-End Street wear" that's are both trendy and expensive, isn't the kind of place you'd expect to find in my neighborhood. Even the name is odd, not a word in any language I know--because I don't know Latin. Apparently it means honest or virtuous... If so, why the pricey price tags? :- >

With Belshotmuir diorama currently undergoing a total review and overhaul, I am taking full advantage of some of the excellent quality building kits available from Kingsway (kingswaymodels.co.uk).
Shown here is a side on view of the One Stop Shop kit, emphasising the PayPoint signage applied to the front of the store. A sign advertising the National Lottery can be seen at the far end.

While the others were still stocking up, I spotted these two local kids waiting for their ice cream cones. Kids are the same everywhere in the world, aren't they? (Uncle Tan's base camp, Sepilok, Sabah, East Malaysia, Nov. 2013)
Built on the corner of Seymour and Neil Streets in the provincial city of Ballarat, this former butcher's shop would have been erected in the early 1900s.
Built of red brick, the shop still has its signs with the lettering clearly cut into stone. On the upper panes of its windows, 1930s signs painted in brilliant red and cobalt blue advertising ox beef, corned beef and choice veal are still clear, if a little faded by the passing years. It also has its original white tile panels with black tile chequered detailing around the windows and corner door. The shop still boasts a very original interior, with high ceilings of pressed tin, weatherboard walls and windows of dark blue and lime and bottle green dimpled glass.
No longer the local butchers, the shop today functions as a studio for a local artist who has embraced the shop's original function and its history by hanging her works from the original meat hooks that hang from a rail along both the Neil and Seymour Street facades.
A closer view of the kiddies' items in display on what I think is the Childrens' Street in the Hanoi old quarter. While in the olden days you had specific streets in the Hanoi old quarter specializing in specific types of merchandise, this is no longer the case for the most part nowadays and the merchants have all moved on, in keeping with the times. But you do still see clusters of stores in one area dealing in a single type of merchandise, like this set of about half a dozen stores selling only childrens' goods.

Motor scooters run on a surprisingly quiet stretch of road in the usually congested Hanoi old quarter. I was surprised that it was this quiet- might have been the time of the day. I am on a pedicab, enjoying a ride around the old quarter with my good pedicab driver pointing out the sights as we go along, making photo stops wherever necessary. I'm enjoying this!

In this modern age of gas cylinders, piped gas and electric hot plates, I was fascinated to spot this store in Pune (Poona) selling kerosene stoves. The cylindrical tank fitted on each stove holds kerosene. It was still fairly early in the morning, the shopkeeper was just opening up, and was curious to know why I wanted to photograph his store. He gave me a rather weird look when I told him, but he did not object.(Pune/ Poona, July 2007)
Sorry if it offends your sentiments if you are Vietnamese, but I found this rather goofy. Imagine wearing a t-shirt based on the Vietnamese flag! I may feel this way because just the previous day, in Halong Bay, I had seen an entire tour group (Europeans mostly) and their tour guide wearing an identical blood red t-shirt with the yellow pointed star. Of course, dresses and even underwear themed on the colours of the flag is nothing new, and this phenomenon exist sin the US, UK and in India too, but I wonder how respectful it is to wear the colours of your nation's flag as your dress or even underwear. Back to the flag itself, the flag of Vietnam, or "red flag with a gold star" was designed in 1940 and used during an uprising against French rule in southern Vietnam that year. The background was inspired by the red flag, used by the international communist movement since the Paris Commune of 1871. Red symbolizes the goals of social revolution behind the Vietnamese, national uprising. The star represents the five main classes in Vietnamese society—intellectuals, farmers, workers, businessmen and military personnel. Now that is a pretty intense thought.

Just minutes into the drive, the van stops by a local store where you can stock up on essentials like flashlight, raincoat, batteries etc. Almost all stuff on sale were cheap China made stuff. The store is well stocked though the choice is limited. I picked up a couple of flashlights here, one of which didn't work at all. The salesgirls there were so incompetent that they gave me two batteries for flashlights that run on three. Thank goodness (in a way) that one of them didn't work at all, and the remote jungle camp had spare batteries for the other! (Uncle Tan's base camp, Sepilok, Sabah, East Malaysia, Nov. 2013)

Still open, despite the building's somewhat desolate appearance. It has had several owners throughout the decades, but I'm not sure how long it has been around.

Bless my good pedicab driver! We came across this pavement store dealing in traditional Vietnamese coffee with the store owner talking on her cell phone when the good man decided to make an almost mandatory halt here.I had had a long night, and day, with hardly any sleep, and the thrill of being in SE Asia once again and of coming to a new place notwithstanding, a caffeine fix was definitely desperately required. My pedicab driver told the lady something in Vietnamese while he and I settled down at one of the tables here while we waited for the lady to finish her conversation, which she thankfully did, pronto.

Our walk towards the Harmandir Sahib or Golden Temple continues down the Hall Bazaar. This is a typically dusty Indian bazaar street with a variety of stores on either side of the street- foodstuff, garments, electronics, Sikh headgear, cafes and restaurants, household goods- you name it. We are at the other end of the Hall Bazaar street now and there is the gate at the other end of the street. The Hall Bazaar was designed by the British, due to this, this is the only 'bazaar' or market street in Amritsar which features a sidewalk (footpath) on either side of the street.

Adjoining the Blue Butterfly period restaurant was this tiny street cafe. It appeared to be a tea shack, judging at what the guys were drinking. Not the best thing to do but in an impulse I suddenly took my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 out of my pocket, aimed and shot this picture. No even as much as even looked up or even batted an eyelid. Stoned? I thought. Maybe they were just day dreaming! Again, I wonder if they had been so cool about it if I had had my large Nikon dSLR with me. This was the first trip where I was using my cellphone camera so extensively, and I think I am beginning to like it- it is invaluable for casual snapshot photography.
