A Pointless Walk

Every Sunday there’s a car boot sale in a schoolyard at the bottom of Hornsey Lane, about two miles away. A buckle has broken on my precious Lederhändler leather rucksack, so I thought that would be a perfect place to find a replacement.
Arsenal were playing at home. Milo and I walked the two miles there to find the car boot sale site had become a temporary football car park. So we walked buckleless the two miles back. A futile expedition.
Why are there no haberdashers any longer?

I happen to know that John Lewis has a perfectly good haberdashery department. Also, this and this. No haberdashers! You’ve just been asking the wrong people.

If you want to know where something can be found in London, why not ask someone from Minneapolis? At least they will know.
