*Wanders into quiet room with towel on head wearing big fluffy bathrobe*


"OHMYGOD! I have such a hangover. I drank so much I was hallucinating and I thought that I saw Michael Palaeologus wearing womens underwear!"


*Flops down into purple velvet armchair, pulls enormous acrylic bra out from beneath cushion.*


*Thinks to self - "this looks strangely familiar..."*


(IT'S NOT MINE, CLEARLY(before you even say it Michael...I NEVER WEAR MAN MADE FIBRES)

*Noooooooooooooooooooo shan't, you will make me eat from the red and shiny side of the muffin' and that will be my undoin' andtheresnomistakin'.*


*Peeks round sofa to see Dulwichmum inexplicably italicised*


*Bounds from behind sofa, equally inexplicably dressed as a Victorian Cockney boy-chimney sweep. Rods and brushes beneath arms, face covered in soot, clutching own lapels, does cheery high stepping prancey-dance to the tea-pot. Helps self to a cup of Rosey- Lee and a slice of Plum Duff*


*So, DM what did you think of the Queens Speech? Hmm?*


*I am sure I saw you on the TV in the background at the House of Lords - dusting*

*Congratulates Michael for the above line ... sheer genious!*


"Indeed I was not a cleaner in the background at the House of Lords, I was doing a cash job repairing some pointing on Donkey Alley at the time."


*Cunningly flips ruby encrusted gold ring open and slips some mysterious powder into Michaels drink, watches smirking as Michael finishes off his cup of Rosie Lee...*

*Wiggles round in a pumpkiny way to watch telly. Its the Rememberance Service on Whitehall. Who's that, at the back, my, its Dulwichmum, doing us proud. Wait, "DM - you missed a leaf, over there, in the bit of gutter that you forgot to sweep"*


*Cant get the staff nowadays. Still, glad hallowen is behind us*

    • 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.
