Spare time

What do you do when you suddenly find yourself with time to spare? On the way to college this week I found that I was earlier than expected -- at last, a chance to visit the jolly-looking caf near Vauxhall station that I'd seen many times from the top of the bus -

It lived up to expectations - friendly and bright, and it had a nice heap of magazines to browse through over coffee and a sandwich -

The Italian fashion mag I was looking at had some great photos. Are those birds or are they locusts -

And just what is going on here -
