Haggler

I suspect this chap might be a professional haggler. Not everyone in the north wears flat caps and tweed jacket nor do they make such a thing about just being in the area to see a friend and wanting to take home a memento of the visit. Mind you Consett, Co. Durham isn't that far away. 

His eye had been caught by the wonderful colour, was it green or blue he asked. Great play was made of holding it to the light and saying it was too good to be in the display cabinet at home, it would have to go out on display.

The glass bowl may or may not be worth the £30 price tag but he had promised himself he wasn't going to use his credit card during the visit and could the shop keeper do better than the 10% discount already on offer...

I was happy to pay the asking price of 4 tiny bottles that will be Blipped in due course.
