Next door to the Heavenly Path Art Galleryis a totally conventional shop, The Curtain Pole, selling and making curtains, blinds and soft furnishings. I especially wanted to do this series of blogs now, because this shop always does wonderful windows at Christmas. Here are those of 2015, rather obscured by condensation and reflections, and later, with young visitors.Nearly at the top of the High Street are Arcanacadabra,Kashi, and somewhere that somehow I have failed to visit so far!Wandering back down the High Street again, I pick up our large organic, etc, store,then ‘get real’ and a shop which totally epitomises Glastonbury, simply called Crystals. I believe that Gothic Image, yet another bookshop, is one of the oldest alternative shops in Glastonbury. Certainly they have been running ‘tours to ancient and sacred sites since 1980’.  You can learn more about many of these places from their websites. I think this is wonderful!Back in the Market Place, I pass Happy Glastonbury, and, nearly back to my garage in Benedict Street, I realise that I hadn’t caught the tattoo ‘studio’ on my way out.  Even though it’s actually double this width.Never a dull moment in Glastonbury!
