Penny Lane

No barbershop, just a hairstylist. I noticed that the street sign was missing and asked Bob. Apparently one of few that the city cannot keep in place! In the past, street signs saying "Penny Lane" were constant targets of tourist theft and had to be continually replaced. City officials gave up and simply began painting the street name on the sides of buildings. Turned out to be fortunate that I was in a car. The weather turned cold and it was drizzling rain.

In Penny Lane, there is a barber showing photographs
Of every head he's had the pleasure to know
And all the people that come and go
Stop and say, "Hello"…

Penny Lane was named after James Penny, an eighteenth-century slave trader. 82061009
