An early morning trip into Bristol city centre. A humid early morning, heavy with the threat of thunder storms moving up from the south on warm, moisture-laden winds. I made it into Hart’s bakery in the dry, gorged on white, sourdough toast spread thickly with raspberry jam – and loved the way the jam was not served in emotionless, commercial sachets but, rather, was simply brought to the table in an open jar, with a spoon sticking up in the middle of it – people after my own heart >>> no pun intended!!!
And there was a cake too and, when the staff weren’t looking, that also got plastered in raspberry jam. But maybe the (always friendly and pleasant) staff did notice after all because when one of them came over to ask me if the food and coffee had been alright and I asked to be carried to the door, she suggested it might be better rolling me to the door, whereupon I told her she was really very rude and we both laughed.
And when I emerged from that veritable gastronomic heaven, there had been a rain shower and, looking towards the light, I saw this scene.
The Looking at Cars series: looking back through the nine years of the FATman Photos archives (and some new images too), I’m posting pictures of cars in various contexts and styles.
