I had been planning to write about serious stuff, but I found myself at Charly’s Bakery on Roeland Street in Cape Town and being a visual person, I was distracted by the colourful cakes and golden pastries – and being a person who likes food, I was distracted by the cakes and pastries. So, I decided to post some images from the bakery.

As one does when one is out about town, one eavesdrops on what people are saying. As is the case with eavesdropping, though, one can never be too sure of the details, so all I can say, then, as a social journalist, is that I think that Charly’s Bakery will be moving to Canterbury Street and I think they will be moving into the old Beinkenstadt Bookshop building at the lower end of Canterbury Street on the Castle side of Town.
