Follow-up

On Holiday in Egypt some years ago, our son Andrew, far from being a ‘master of haggling’ (Peterborough), haggled the price of a straw hat uP! he felt the seller was not asking enough and spent ten minutes working the price up to a point he considered fair. As we bid our farewells, the Egyptian was wearing a totally bemused expression.
