White shoes
This morning, we headed down to Queen Vic for brunch at one of the Spanish cafes near the entrance. While walking off to the meat and fruit sections of the market, my eagle eye caught sight of a pair of white jazz oxfords in size 7 on sale for only AUD5. Imagine my glee, really. Naturally, I went over to the stall and called to the owner, who is an old man, and asked about the shoes. After some bantering and him offering that the shoes are really really old (like 30 - 40 years old), he decided to give it to me for free.
Of course, I paid him the AUD5 anyway. It’s not about the money, it’s just about … giving something back, I guess. It really made my day. :)
