Sunday, 23 October:

Not too much going on this weekend. We went for a short walk on Saturday evening and found a decent hardware store. It is a lot like the ACE Hardware in Hillcrest. It carries the tools, etc. but it also carries a lot of things you don't expect in a hardware store like dishes and cooking utensils.

Today, we went for a walk down Bayswater Road and were treated to an art fest. Apparently artists are able to get a permit to display art for sale. There was about a mile of artwork all hanging from the fencing along Kensington Gardens. Some of the art was impressive, some of it was mundane. What was really interesting was that none of the artists had any interest in engaging admirers. Most artists weren't even on the sidewalk, they were sitting in their cars and completely ignoring the outside world. Artists have absolutely no ability to sell their work.
