In the beginning I thought I was in control - a birthday present here( coasters... oh yes coasters no less) a small item of clothing there (a skirt with decorative buttoms - yes I should have seen the danger). But I thought I could handle it.


Oh they were clever, yes ... I'd walk past and see lights in the window and things I liked and before I knew it I'd be inside, my heart beating, my temperature slightly raised as I picked up a silk photo album. OH yes I said it was a present for a friend - I made my excuses - but we all know what's going on here don't we....It's the way they get the young that really gets to me - I'm not sure if I'm ready to reveal this but I'm going to try - I've seen booties, books and a tambourine, I mean the horror, the horror!


We must do something about this while we still can...

It's not my cup of tea either so I just won't go in there - end of story. If it makes other people happy - good for them. It does seem that saying that you either like something or don't like something is so fraught. Nothing is ever going to please all the people all of the time.

    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
    • Hear hear. Very well said. Thank you and all the best for the year ahead 
    • Tried months ago, to get folk together to do something, to say thank you. Been a member of the forum for years and if you had not stepped up, would not be an active  forum. Well administered as well. So from me to you, thanks for keeping it going..  Happy Christmas and blessings and good fortune in 2026 which I am told is The Year of The Horse….
