How I Learned The Art of Selling with a banana in my hand, and bacon in my mouth
A Journey of 1000 miles starts with the first step…..right after a few beers and a Bacon Sandwich. Sudbury in Suffolk is where I spent much of my time growing up, it’s a really quaint market town with very small streets, big stone churches, breathtaking countryside and the unusual reputation of being able to see at least two pubs from any street corner in town. Many great churches and houses were built over the decades giving this small town a major historical legacy. Sudbury’s history dates back into the age of the Saxons, the town’s earliest mention is in 799 AD. The town is also mentioned in the Doomsday Book of 1086 as a market-town where the local people came to barter their goods. The market was established in 1009 and is still vibrant today. During the 18th century Sudbury became famous for its local artists; John Constable painted in the area, especially the River Stour. I recently visited the Met in New York where one of the largest collections of Constable’s work was on display, from collectors all around the globe. It was stunning, so many pieces took me back to the places I hiked, canoed and camped as a kid. Also the world famous Painter ‘Thomas Gainsborough’ was born in Sudbury in 1727; he is known all over the world for his painting of the “The Blue Boy’. I have seen copies of “The Blue Boy” hanging in some of the most unlikely places. One time I saw a wrinkled copy hanging on a mud wall of a home in a tiny village in the High Atlas Mountains in Morocco. Imagine that?! Another copy was in a public toilet in Venice Italy… go figure. During World War 2 an American squadron of B-24 Liberator bombers of the 834th Squadron, 486th Bomb Group, from the 8th Air Force was based at RAF Sudbury. This squadron performed many important bombing and photographic missions during the war, but is perhaps best known as the “Zodiac Squadron”, as its bombers were decorated with colorful images of the twelve signs of the zodiac. When you walk through Sudbury on market day, which happens twice a week, the sounds and smells and sounds of fish mongers, grocers, bakers, butchers, and every other conceivable vendor packs the town square; each one has their own way of attracting punters to come to their stalls and fill their shopping bags. The sound of their voices calling out the specials of the day, their dialects as colorful as their faces, etched by the years of being in the elements, their voices musical and bold, responding to the flow...
