The Tower of Babel – Shop of the Day 10

I can’t believe it’s Sunday again, this blog is making the time count down even faster.  So keeping with the Sunday theme here is a great example of one of my favourite types of shops.  A dual purpose outlet. That’s not a very catchy way of describing it – maybe you can suggest some better ways of putting it. (comments welcome). Basically  a single premises doing 2 different things. Maybe we can do that as a theme next week, so to kick off; mixing religion and commerce this bookshop and 99p shop in Walthamstow.  I promise next week no more E17.
