Image description

Umbrella mender Ho Hung-hee (R) chats with a customer as he works in his makeshift Hong Kong shop September 5, 2002. Ho, 77, set a Guinness World Record in 1994 for producing the world's most expensive umbrella, which cost sterling 167 ($106). He said he was doing brisk business - about a dozen umbrellas a day - as customers wanted to keep broken umbrellas with sentimental value rather than replace them. Ho, who has been fixing umbrellas for 54 years from the same location, even counts celebrities as some of his customers. REUTERS/Bobby Yip CL/JD
