Le Morte d’Flying Duck

Feb 3, 2008

Random

I tend to visit Greenwich a couple of Sundays per month to get lunch and wander around the markets – and also to visit the awesome Flying Duck shop.

flying duck 1 It specialises in selling memorabilia from the 1970′s – along with some modern replias and even if you manage to walk out without buying something, the place is a pleasure just to have a look in.

Went down today – and horrors – the shop is closing down.

*wails*

They are having a closing down sale and will keep their website running in the future, so not all is lost.

My best ever buy from there was a 1970′s(ish) carrier bag which was originally sold by the Transport Museum and just happens to also be exactly the right size for my laptop computer.
