It’s so easy to forget to change your shop’s sign around when you close up for the day isn’t it? What makes this one special is the humourous photo featuring Harry Enfield :)

Spotted in a shop window in Devizes just before Christmas.

The developments in and around Northgate and Snuff Streets in Devizes have been enhanced with some attractive sculptures and public planting. This is one of two ‘cut-out’ street scenes of children playing by the car park. The snow just before Christmas made a particularly good contrast.

It was the unusual tiling on the first floor of this building on the high street in Devizes which made me go back and take a photo, but then I realised as I was taking it that I was also looking at a dying breed of specialist shop.
