Wish I'd been to that party.

Richardsons Scrap Yard in New England Street.
A favourite haunt of mine since college days. Hover round and have a snoop, say you're an artist and they'll let you rummage and photograph at will. I've bought masses of wire of different weights for sculptures, copper sheeting, objects: a metal hotwater bottle (decorative purposes only so far) Indian measuring pots, metal poles for allotment supporting purposes, railings, fire places, a book press even. In fact more of Richardsons may be at my place than at Richardsons.
