31/05/2016I woke up early about 7am and went to a client's house to do interpreting. The client is a younger mother about 20 years old and her son is two years old. Her son is so cute and always put his hands on my hands. The social worker is so nice and she did not mind my poor interpreting. After I did this freelance interpreting work, I hung out in the city centre and found a stamps' shop named Corner Stamps. It is a small shop and the boss of this shop is a fan of collecting different kinds of stamps. He usually buys or exchanges {or "trades"} stamps with others. I was interested in a set of stamps which that was about pre-revolution of China and I wanted to buy it, however, I forgot to bring cash and the price of those stamps was £20. This small shop just receive by accepted cash rather by but not credit card.
