A top quality charity shop in Leith (Rousse)

Posted on February 17, 2016 by Dreamaticus

We’d never before noticed this charity shop next to the Leith cycle path. The window display of 1970s ballgowns tempted us in. The clothes for sale were more ‘vintage’ than second-hand, and the knick knacks genuine antiques. While TPR picked … Continue reading →
