Main St is the shopping district of Gibraltar. its one long stretch of shops, jewelry stores, banks, pharmacies and cafes. its where you can find almost everything you need. and while you are busy taking in the VAT-free shopping, you cant help but notice THEM. still as a statue. hardly even blinking. but then again i never stayed long enough to observe them properly. they have a piece of cloth laid out on the ground in front of them. presumably for any kind of payment you can give them for your viewing pleasure.
they are amusing in a way and children are their no. 1 fans. maybe because they are lifesized interpretation of characters you only see in childrens books, classic novels or old movies. i wonder how much do they earn in a day?
