I went into the Somerfield on Lordship Lane on Tuesday to find some builders having a tea party! They were taking part in an event Somerfield were having ? they all looked very funny sipping tea and eating girly cherry bakewells ? not their usual bacon butties! Not many of them could tell the difference between Tetley tea and Somerfield?s own red label tea or Heinz baked beans and Somerfield?s own brand baked beans ? I thought that was a bit strange based on the difference in price as Somerfield?s own products are a lot cheaper than other brands! Did anyone else witness this hilarious spectacle? Good on Somerfield for letting the beefcakes take part ? it brightened up my day!

I love it when normal, hum-drum experiences take a weird turn


I was in Finsbury Square near Moorgate one summer's lunchtime with hundreds of other people when 3 page3 types started wandering by, actually topless, for some promotional thing...


And welcome to the forum bbrown - don't forget to say


hello

I did that once on the promenade in Torquay for a bet and no one batted an eyelid then either.

I wonder if the builders tea party had anything to do with Somerfield's sponsorship of Macmillan Cancer Support. Bit early for World's Biggest Coffee Morning but sounds like something they may do. Somerfields have just supported Macmillan to the tune of ?1 million. Great for people affected by cancer!

    • My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road). 
    • Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
