Most Toys On UK Market Stalls "Made In China"

Small market stalls at side of road. Road side market stalls had been set up by farmers and house holders. We had to pass the market stalls to visit Wen Wen and his parents, who were not expecting us. The Chinese hospitality immediately took over, and tea, sweets, fruit and small cakes were brought to a table for us. From the first floor balcony there was a good view of the market stalls on the road below. There were also farmers market stalls on the nearby square. Wen Wen had grown a lot since I first saw him two years earlier, so I was at last able to give him the present of a pack of ten dinky vehicles. I had searched our local UK market stalls many times to find something that did not bear the label, "Made In China" !

Chinese Boy Leads Blind Musicians Through Market Stalls

There were some splendid examples of coolie hats being worn by women attending their market stalls below, Regular market stalls open every THREE DAYS. perhaps advertising their own products, as hat making is an extra source of income for many families. As I was watching the activities around the market stalls I became aware of the sound of somebody singing. Shortly after, the responsible two men came into view, both sightless and joined together by a short length of cloth. A young boy, perhaps 6 or 7 years old and with a collection bowl, was using the red cloth to guide then through the market stalls. The first man had both his hands amputated and the second man was playing a home made fiddle. As they slowly made their way past the market stalls, people were purposely crossing the street to add their contributions, in no way did they ignore the courageous pair.
