There is one shoppe on the far um... east? side of the faire, across from the Royal Mint... they sell clocks. But they have their shoppe fully decked out in some really sweet steampunk gear... that they won't sell because they were told they weren't allowed to. Wonder why everyone else gets to? (or maybe it's just that they asked permission and no one else bothered to )

Steampunk falls into the category of "I was doing that before it was cool, dangit!" and now I can't do it because it's so trendy. Sigh.
