Ring Ring the phone blings and its my friend Eden all in a panic.She: a man is standing here on my verandah and said he hated everything in the art gallery but wants to buy my sign, what should I do?
Me: sell it to him and I'll paint you another sign.
She: what should I charge him?
Me: what's the highest number you can say without laughing?
She: I dunno.
Me: start at 400 bzd, because when I made that sign I think I ate about 200 in free lobster right there on your verandah.
She: o.k. den
The deal finished, everyone was happy, I painted another sign and took it out in bbq chicken dinners.
Great illo, its very enticing. You should put it up in your coffe bar!

ReplyDeleteYou are very savvy business woman. I want to be like that!
And happy new year.
I love trades. I hardly ever accept cash from friends for goods and services. My favorite trade is with a local massage therapist. Chai and banana cake for massage.
ReplyDeleteNice reading your blog. We lead a similar sort of life but I am in Sosua in the Dominican Republic.
ReplyDeleteI represent a artist that does sculptures in bronze and I am going to build a gallery here:)
