Other sad losses to Calis are the Chinese Lantern seller and the wizzy, flashy, sparkly tat man.
(Haven't missed the flag seller either.

Saw the wizzy, flashy, sparkly tat man nearly every night sadly !

In all the years of going to Calis, I have never been in Ali's bar or even noticed it, which is strange as we sit in Joseph's all the time :o ;D :(

Is the Turkish Viagra / Peanut Brittle Man still around ?

Yes he is. One of my favourite local characters

Not seen the deaf and dumb sellers this time.  I heard that during the last purge of streeet sellers, they had all their keyrings etc., confiscated.
