My work place

Well, when I started out, I set up my practise under the boughs of a spreading tamarind tree along a path running through Town Hall Park. This is a very good location, as it is always very crowded.

I knew that the first impression of the stall is of utmost importance. Even though I lack proper lighting, I do not really mind, as I think this helps to make the stall look even more mysterious. It looks even better in the evening, when all the stalls light up their gaslights, naked flares on poles and old cycle lamps. It causes a criss-cross of light rays and shadows, making the shop appear to be magical and enchanted

At the stall right next to me, is a famous groundnut seller. Many people from all parts of town will patronize his stall. Fortunately, many of these people who are buying groundnuts would look at my stall with interest and they would be curious at its apperance.
