At least 10 people asked me today if business was quiet in my store . It just was so busy today and yesterday even though its a bank hol weekend.You must have been shopping around 12.30 when things did go quiet???Or maybe people just were desperate to stock up on what we sell. :))

Dear Dulwichmum


Do you think it wise that I expose my whereabouts to thousands of these lovely residents?.I would be a sitting duck. I just dont think we could cope with all the free advertising and extra custom it would bring. Could bring the house down. To give you another clue, we sell necesities not just luxuries. You probably even know me already, oh well the beauty of anonymity.


kind regards.

Dear Nero,


You make Stockport sound delightful, I shall consider it a future holiday destination. Mr Karter, I am intriged (did I spell that properly?), mmm necesities, that would mean that you work in Moo too. Are you Pat or Maggie then? Or perhaps you are the lovely dark haired lady who served me in Dr Boo earlier on? She did make me laugh...

Dear Dulwichmum


I am neither but I am competitor to parkhill properties . I am favourouble to smaller retailers, I lease to them but work in too but no way as big .I love this area and try to retain the mix. Maggie and Pat know me so do many others.


Oh well you could not guess right, never mind,


happy easter


love K

Hard at work gardening, cycling and boozing in ED this weekend. There was a fairly length Q outside W Rose around 1.30 today, as we wizzed past on the way to grotty garden centre to get some heavy duty gloves. And the traffic was fairly heavy on the way back too.

Just back from Antwerp. Nice weather, great muscles and frites and lovely beers in the Ood Arsenaal pub - met a charming Yorkie couple and their Flemish friends. OD'd on the Flemish masters and spent yesterday afternoon strolling around Antwerp zoo.


Got back this afternoon and bumped into Mr and Mrs Georgia Bullock over the salads at Sainsbos.


Just watching the telly - bad news of General Gordon in Khartoum I fear.

I went to South West France en vacance and so lovely it was that I sat by the pool and am now rather tanned. It was a weekend of fine wine and fine food - so much so that I have returned to work rather spaced from the experience. My french did dramatically improve though after imbibing the red of the region!

Dear Mr/Ms Nero


Have you read Pies and Prejudice by Stuart Maconie? I've always found him a bit annoying but book a great nostalgia trip for us northeners. I've just got back from sunny Normandy (so full of goat's cheese I can hardly breathe) where I should by rights have been reading Flaubert but was taken on a rosy tinted tour of Lancashire and Yorkshire- fabulous holiday read. Made me want to pick up a Wainwright and go trotting off up to the Lakes.......

    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open.
