A pair of strolling troubadours, at least that's what ran through my mind when I saw these two guys with their guitars slung over the shoulders. I spotted them making their way along Southview Drive a few days ago, as I have mentioned before there seem to be a large number of folk in Wanstead who play stringed instruments. Do we have a large number of music teachers in the area, I only know of one...
I also checked the meaning of troubadour in the dictionary, 'a French medieval lyric poet composing and singing in Provencal in the 11th to 13 century, especially on the theme of courtly love'.... isn't that delicious, I'm just an old romantic really...
Here they usually carry them in a case!
ReplyDeleteI think these guys like to be ready for instant action..
DeleteLove this! And love your imaginings too!
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it, as they say it's all in the mind and mine generally works overtime :)
DeleteLol, modern day troubadours... Some of the original songs were much more... er... non-romantic than you would think!!! Cool shot!
