4 . If you are tired of staying at home, now make the most out of the weekend by getting stuck into the best things going on this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Kew Gardens
If you are ready to fully put yourself into nature, get yourself down to Kew Gardens. It is famous for its plant collections from around the world. Recently, everyone visiting the garden, including the members, has to book tickets online for the time range before they set foot in it. This is the first time that Kew Gardens has adopted this policy in its history.
Lambeth Country Show
This year the countryside festival won’t be going ahead in its usual home of Brockwell Park. But all your favorite aspects of the fair will be part of the virtual edition, including the highly expected Vegetable Sculpture Competition, the usual flower show competitions, and local-themed talks. Even virtual music performances will make an appearance.
Walthamstow Garden Party in the Air
The free two-day festival in E17 will be held this weekend. You can enjoy online music and dance performances. Don’t miss the most wonderful part of the weekend: East London Radio’s first-ever online show taking place during the weekend with behind-the-scenes chats with local musicians.
Columbia Road Flower Market
As the largest flower market in East London, this market is located in Bethnal Green. It opens on Sundays. Every Sunday morning the quiet street of Columbia Rood is filled with stalls selling fresh flowers and plants. Personally, it is wise to go there between 8:00 am and 10:00 am so that you can walk at your own pace and won’t be pushed by the crowds.

Dear Mr. Green,

The old doll I was holding was pretty scary. Her glass eyes were especially horrible, closing when she stood upright and flying open when she lay flat. Once she had been loved, but she had been stored in an attic (阁楼) for decades, where the extremes of heat and cold can be hard on a girl’s looks. Throw her in the waste bin? Maybe. But first, let’s check eBay.
I clicked, supplied the required information about condition, including defects (i.e., “Only a miracle could save this doll”), and uploaded its photos. I sold it for $5.
The buyer was happy: “As described!” he wrote on my feedback page. “Super seller!” The doll found a home and, I hope, a new life. Maybe she was used to repair other dolls. Perhaps those strange eyes got fixed and once again can inspire a child’s love. It’s a win-win, if you ask me.
I also sold lots of other stuff. None of them brought in a lot of money, though I have been surprised at the occasional bidding war, like, for example, the one over an old swimsuit that would have made Brigitte Bardot look bad. And some customers, let’s face it, are strange. Recently I had a hard time convincing an Australian would-be buyer of an Irish souvenir bell that I don’t shop internationally; it’s just too much trouble. He could have flown to Ireland and bought his own bell for the price he was willing to pay. Another time, a buyer complained that the electric wire on an old radio was dirty. Really? Dirty? The wire was black. But I aim to please, so I offered a refund.
So why bother with the dealing and small profits? Because I don’t like abandoning the past. All these treasures once had stories. They meant something. But the people who gave them that meaning are gone, and I simply cannot rescue everything. I can’t even sew. So I find it satisfying that a new owner, discovered via eBay, will continue the story in his or her own way.
