For a few days every month Bill sells The Big Issue * on the corner of Foveaux and Elizabeth Streets, Surry Hills. He's the only Big Issue vendor I have seen with such an eye-catching display. December is a pretty special month for Bill and his lion mate, who always accompanies him. I like Bill very much. He's always got a kind word for everyone and I've never seen anyone happier in his work.
Here's the card he was giving out:
*The Big Issue is a fortnightly current affairs and entertainment magazine that is sold on the streets of towns and cities throughout Australia by people experiencing homelessness or long-term unemployment. Vendors keep half of the cover price ($4) of every magazine they sell.
