A few years ago when my son was young and in a buggy, I was walking down one of the aisles in sainsburys and caught the eye of a woman with short, blond hair coming towards me. She was very familiar to me (maybe one of the other mums from nursery/playgroup/clinic? etc) and we both smiled and nodded at each other, as you do to someone you know vaguely. As we passed, I was glad she didn't stop to talk as I couldn't remember where it was I knew her from. I walked to the end of the aisle and it suddenly came to me - it was Haley Cropper from Coronation Street, minus the wig!
I have seen Shirly from Eastenders a couple of times there, plus Moss from the IT crowd. Around The Actress we saw the Irish hguy froom Primevil and Joanna Page's Hubby who Used to be on Emmerdale. Finally Seen the grey haired Australian who used to be on Home and Away, neighbours and Emmerdale and most recently the westend version of Priscilla :)

    • Thank you, this really made me chuckle. It's like you met my brother as he would be the one taking more than his share. Plus the 'pikey' chutney is a winner. Unusual as in can't be identified??? Sadly I'm not the host otherwise I would definitely do that I regularly shop in the Cheese Block and am a fan. But as people have pointed out, there is no cheese shop that charges less based on bulk, so Aldi unusual cheeses may be what the familam receive! Yay, so I can get discounted mouse nibbled cheese still! Oooo, now I do love a Stinking Bishop. It actually offends my stepmum by it's stinkiness but luckily she is not one of the attendees at this particular gathering.  This is blooming genius. It's actually my partner who has the biggest issue with buying in plastic so I will have to hide the wrappers from him!
    • I like the look of SD's Sweet and Sour chicken. It's a really good dish when made freshly and well. I'll need to try it. Sad that Oriental Star and Lucky House by Dulwich Library both closed at a similarish time. They were decent, reliable, "British Chinese" takeaways.
    • William S Spicer was a family-owned firm that initially made horse drawn delivery carts for breweries (especially Fullers Brewery in W London) and horse-drawn trams. With the advent of the internal combustion engine, they successfully made the transition to coachbuilding delivery vehicles London's leading department stores using German engines. WW2 interrupted their business for obvious reasons, and their postwar attempt to become the local assembler and distributor of Bulgarian "Izmama" trucks was not blessed with good fortune. In 1953, the company pivoted to being a full-service garage, leveraging their reputation for honesty and excellence.  In 1972, the Dulwich site was sold to its present owners. William S Spicer III (the grandson of the founder) retired to Lancashire, where he founded a sanctuary for the endangered ineptia beetle, which he had encountered in Bulgaria while travelling for business. In 1978, Spicer was awarded an OBE for conservation, and a newly-discovered  beetle was named after him by the Bulgarian People's National Academy of Sciences - Byturus Spicerius.
