Torrential rain and re-stocking the Portuguese suitcase
Torrential rain on Golborne Road, Notting Hill. Re-stock the Portuguese suitcase in I Packed This Myself (filled with items that Portuguese workers in Cornwall, now working mostly in meat processing factories, said they carried with them to the UK). The woman working in the shop kindly gives me a selection of scarves free...Golborne Road (like Vauxhall) is a hub of the Portuguese community in London. Portuguese cafes, bakers and grocery shops.
