Picks up note and reads aloud. Takes pack of Smythson notelets and gold Cross fountain pen from enormous status handbag and writes:


Darling red devil,


How very kind! I can think of nothing that would give me more pleasure. However, sadly I shall be in Wales, retrieving my poppets from the my monster-in-law's lair. I shall send the housekeeper along instead. She has been stealing my gin for years, you are bound to make stacks of cash from her. I shall visit very soon though!


Best,


DM x

*'BANG!'...accidentally steps onto lonely looking party balloon.

Puts binbag full of empties out for the dustmen, and leaves note out for cleaners to clean up vomit stained Cath Kidson 'easy clean fabric' covered Chaise Longue.

Spies what looks like an item of ladies undergarment, hanging from the stags head over the fireplace...'Victoria's Secret', takes a closer look at what appears to be a monogram...'DM - This Way Up!'...*

Wafts into quiet room with long suffering housekeeper who is pushing industrial vacuum cleaner and wearing yellow Marigold gloves". Glances over at red devil and notices he is holding some red acrylic undergarments.


"OHMYGOD! Hold it the right way up man and put on your glasses. Let me see... it says "MP" - indicating that this item is owned by Michael Paleogolopodopadus. I NEVER wear man made fibres,and he adores wearing this type of thing. Anyhow, I am a married lady" (scowls and stomps foot).


"Albena, get scrubbing, now where did I put my dog stunner?"

"Och Aye the Noo my wee pals. Krivens! I have just returned from Edinburgh, do you like my kilt? The baby pink and chocolate tartan and empire line is quite the thing with the Japanese clansmen gathered on the Royal Mile eating traditional haggis in a basket and traditional Scottish Ice-cream as made by Paulo McGelato"


"As DM well knows I do not wear any form of intimate garmet next to my nethers, no matter who it is owned by"


"Gimme a pink Gin"

    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertises times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
