Default Need a favour, bit of a long shot

Bit of a strange query but I was down in camden (from cheshire) for a Concert at the roundhouse. My wife and I had wandered through the stables market and saw a necklace she liked, I had no cash, eventually found a cash machine and went back for it while she waited, when I got there and bought it the guy helpfully said they had matching earrings but I declined as I hadn't got enough cash out

I'd like to get the earrings but its a bit of a trek back and I think they are hand made jobbies, if I get a picture of the necklace and give a decent description of the location of the stall would anyone be kind enough to pick them up and post them if I cover costs etc?

This is all assuming they are still there so ideally someone that is going there anyway or passes it regularly so wouldn't mind popping in on what may be a wild goose chase.

No worries if there are no takers though, its a strange request and is my own fault for not getting them in the first place.

Wow what a response! thanks BernardBikerchick! (top marks for enthusiasm BTW! ) I'll covertly grab a picture of it this week, no rush on when it happens, its just a whole lot quicker than me heading back down there.
It was on the stall two stalls to the right as you walk in through this entrance: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Stab...,247.89,,0,4.3

it backs on to the road so its immediately to the right, lots of nice jewellery in there.
they might have moved the earrings but they were in the rightmost cabinet on the back wall in the top section.

I'll PM the pic and sort out payment, thank you so much for this, she will be over the moon! I bought some cheapy ones off ebay in a similar design but its just not the same, these will make her day.
