Refreshments and Fags

Refreshments and Fags, Street Vendor, Old Chongqing, China, Copyright Chris Gregory 2008

Fag is a British colloquialism for cigarette.  In the narrow lanes of Old Chongqing we found this fellow selling a selection of refreshment items including Wrigley’s chewing gum! Also on the stand was a range of Chinese branded cigarettes and lighters.  I don’t know what was in the clay pots and bamboo cylinders. That’s what makes walking in foreign lands so fascinating.
