Neither of those ladies are the carrier-bag lady that I remember (nothing like either of them, actually), so maybe there was more than one lady but only one of them had that well-remembered cry.

Had bought 2 bunches and chatted with her and asked about the Andy Carrier Lady who she was Nell(ie) then took her photo - then she gave me the extra 2 bunches of daffs in the photo.
If someone can print out the photo and give her the hard copy, I'm sure that she'd be over the moon.
