We are glad our Amateur Photographer stood his ground. We await the reply from the Greenwich Market Authorities and their action taken against this "rowdy" stall owner. I have lived in the Middle East, UK, Canada and the USA, and enjoyed taking market and stall photos without any hindrance or objections. In fact I was in a Libyan (Tripoli) fish market (just before the uprising) and the stall owners would welcome me to take their photos, explaining the fish varieties in their stalls. I found living in the UK a bit stressful, except Scotland, where people were kinder, simpler and more friendly. I remember walking into a pub one very cold December evening in Peterhead (north sea oilfield region). Some folks asked me "canye speak English". I said, "no Sir, only Scottish". The whole pub burst out in laughter. And all my drinks + food was on the house - refused to take money from me. I still have happy memories and plenty of photos from this Scottish Pub.
