Gods go shopping

Gods go grocery shopping.



I wandered down to London's Covent Garden to see a recreation of the original Punch and Judy Show. It was right there on the same spot in front of St. Paul's Church where the diarist Samuel Pepys saw the very first 'Italian puppet play' on the 9th of May 1662. What else would I be doing?


I was so grateful to my friends Betty Davenport and Fergus Roy for putting the event together. They run the oldest magic shop in London, operated by the same family for 122 years. Davenport's.


When Mr. Punch was having a beer and getting punch drunk after belting his wife Judy who was rubbing ointment on to her wounds, I wandered over to the fruit hall of Covent Garden. Something caught my eye, it was superhero Silverarm out shopping with his partner. See movie hero hunks are just like us. "Hello video camera, I'm going to turn you on."


Ian.
