Just had a fabulous manicure (complete with herbal tea and biscoff 🙂 ) by SOFIA, based in an upstairs room in Oru.

Honestly polar opposite of most nail salons where you're welcomed in to a bustling shop full of people and chemical smells from nail polish remover etc. 

This little salon is a light and airy room where you can see the sky and look at a vase of daffodils whilst Sofia is giving you a manicure and lovely hand massage!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Sounds great!

What is the cost of a manicure?

“Posting for a friend”

That might have been the case if it was a first post, but it isn't, which makes it less likely.

It would be sad if people were put off from posting on here when they have had a good experience at a new local business because they think it will be assumed that they have some connection with the business.

do you know that though Sue - or are you just guessing? And that is rhetoric.

 

 

I know it's not a first post, if that's what you mean?

You can see the number of posts a forum member has made by clicking on the letter next to their name.

You can also see when they joined the forum  and you can see what recent posts they have made.

Do you know that the OP was "posting for a friend", or are you just guessing?

Nope she wasn't a friend, it was the first time we had met and she was lovely... highly recommended 🙂

Anyone on here in theory could post for friends or post fake reviews. 

I'm simply trying to be nice and spread the word about someone who does a very good job in a lovely calm space, in contrast to most nail salons where you're in a busy place and no personal touch, no conversation and definitely no herbal tea and biscuits!

How many daffodils in the vase 

Approximately 6 😉

Off peak slightly cheaper, depends on what type of manicure.

Mine was classic as I don't like gels (£27 on Treatwell but then they take a percentage so best to book directly).

Sofia has an offer on first time clients who book directly.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
