Fully Booked!

In Corn Street, Bristol (home of 'The Nails') there is a guy who touts for tours of the air raid shelters beneath Corn Street and the Corn Street Market.
He normally has a hard sell getting people to join his tours but this morning he had a gleam in his eye!

This reminds me of the street hustlers in Dallas, outside the assassination site of John F. Kennedy. They offer "tours" of the area for a fee. Most folks ignore them, but every now and then they will snare some tourists for their "tours".

I can't really describe him as a 'hustler', he's a pleasant enough chap and the tour is quite genuine.

Could be, some of the faces don't convey real excitement!
