It's about 2 m. high but with a gap below, just enough to push your money through, or receive one of their delicious cakes or loaves. My friend and I had a fit of the giggles the first time we encountered it. Wearing masks and plastic disposable gloves, we felt as though we should be part of a hold-up gang!<br />Those pipes do look sort of sewery.Coppa's girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16459503600694841117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860373600653353661.post-42458218716246402652020-06-23T11:49:08.268+02:002020-06-23T11:49:08.268+02:00Scottish restaurants can't really count on out...Scottish restaurants can't really count on outdoor dining. Even in St Andrews you'd probably be able to count the nights you could sit comfortably outside on one hand.

I keep looking at the photos of the steps some restaurants have taken to make themselves "safe" and thinking I'd never want to eat there with all that paraphernalia reminding me of the pandemic. These screens create more of a sense of privacy. I have to correct you on the Grateful Dead - they were definitely not heavy metal, more psychedelic jam band. I worked for the Dead a long time ago as a publicist - they were one of the most successful touring bands in the world, famous for allowing everyone to freely record their live performances. As a consequence, they never made that much money selling records, and that may help explain the deodorant and all sorts of other strange Dead-branded merchandise. My husband was once given a Jerry Garcia necktie, which seemed particularly inappropriate.Lisa in Francehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06080757130655335246noreply@blogger.com
