I am sure many of you know this place, but for those who don't i thought I would put a few shots up.  Definately worth a visit if your in town.  Your all welcome, well, except Aussies.  Yanks.  Southern Yanks as well.  Oh and Northerners.  Ah yes, and Danes.

The Arcades, on Piccadilly, provide for ones basic needs, for us born and bred Londoners, above and beyond our simple groceries from Fortnums. La de da.

Love the birth year Rolex sales gimmick. What better way to organise and market rows and rows of second hand Datejusts! Even I'm attracted by that idea...

I’m trying to imagine what a southern yank is.  Maybe someone from New Jersey?  It’s like calling a scot a northern English person.

When there's no advertised pricing............I lose interest very quickly.

Lovely array of watches nonetheless.

As the saying goes Russ "if you need to ask... You can't afford it" 

In fact I believe that is written in Latin below the sign :D

And if you run or whistle you'll be thrown out of the arcade.

To clarify, a southern Yank is anyone who resides in a U.S state that allows the deep frying of confectionary, and deems that practice generally acceptable.

Deep frying confectionery (how we spell it here) is illegal over there?

Illegal to Sell & manufacture but not to buy.  And look, im sorry.  But its easier in the long run.  No Arcade!
