    Memories! Memories! I remember such people (knife sharpeners, rag-and-bone men, milkmen, greengrocers, coming through our street, the Bockenbergstraat, in Gouda, when I was little.
    Here (in Sydney) it was only the dunny-man and we hardly ever saw him. (There were other ways of knowing he was around!)
    Love how straight he’s sitting. I should sit like that!!

  • yeah the good old days hmmmm , groetjes uit broome
