We were just strolling up one of Málaga’s neighbourhood shopping streets, when we saw this:
What’s up here?
Murder most foul?
Someone up to no good?
The aftermath of an uprising?
How upsetting.
Luckily we soon realised.
These up-ended legs belonged to a plaster mannequin.
The shop where they’d come from was having a makeover.
It was going up-market.
Selling to those Uptown Girls.
From Pyrenees to Pennines 
Nice legs!

Oh, indeed. I don’t know about you, but my husband’s an inveterate skip-scavenger. I’m quite surprised those legs aren’t here, now.

I used to work in waste management. Made some amazing bin finds in those days.

Not even once. We had no television when I was a child, and by the time there was one in my life, when I was about 30, the moment had passed.
