Have you read “Only the English?” It was my latest post. Well a number of people have pointed out that “Clowns Nursery” is of course not a plant store at all, but a preschool. Of course this is true and this explains the large sign they have along the path displaying a — big shocker — clown — holding balloons which apparently greets the children and their parents upon arrival. This also explain why people ran after me the other day when I picked up a couple of bay laurels and left money and hopped on the 268 bus.

All I have to say is that I apologise for any confusion. I was having an American moment, you dig? Anyhow I wouldn’t trust those clowns with my children.
