...is my new memory Mirrorfoam mattress! Seriously brilliant - I now look forward to going to sleep. You will never use a sprung mattress again. And at ?700 it is a bargain when you spend a third of your life asleep. And it changes your life.. So buy one. Now.


Anyway - what is teh best thing you have ever bought and why?

Bread machine from lilly on this very forum.

No, correction: my contact lenses. Changed my life.

No no, not those: it would have to be my motorbike. It is SO comfortable and I love it.

Orrr it could be the advert I paid for in Time Out all those years ago that found me MrRose!

If I say Marc Jacobs shoes I will sound shallow and vain? A very good set of german steel - chopping onions brings me more pleasure than is possibly normal.


Ultimately probably my freedom from a hideous, hideous job and stress-related alopecia - paying for it now in the freelance drought

My remote controlled helicopter.

Brick of Hashish along with an AK47 when I was working in Pakistan 2 years ago, loads of fun but I had to sell it before coming back which was a shame.

Tempur mattress of the TV which is apparently used by NASA, well the missus bought it.

Yamaha R1 1000cc motorbike although I'm still paying that off.

University education.


I want to get my private pilots license next year.

    • I went last week and would recommend. I was very happy to see pricing based on hair length and especially a fringe trim price. I live nearby and don’t need it fully styled / blown out after a cut (curly so usually prefer to do it myself) so I like that it is variable pricing in that way. 
    • Memes top of lordship haircut shampoo blow dry about £25  dulwich barbers hair cut about£22  jazzes haircut about £26 
    • Re Day One, £52 for a short hair cut (cut & styling) and £72 for a long hair cut (cut & styling) which I believe is below the ears.  £38 for a blow dry which doesn’t appear to be included in the cut price as it’s not mentioned.  £15 for a fringe tidy.      I remember being startled to be charged separately for a blow dry by the salon that used to be in Melbourne Grove but is now closed down.  I was asked if I wanted a blow dry after the cut and highlights and said yes, but wasn’t told that I would be charged separately.  Only found out when I went to pay the bill.    Was offered a voucher on a further appointment.    De.Salon which used to be Cut-Throat in Peckham (Choumert Rd and Brixton) charge from £45 for a Short haircut that finishes by the ears.  They charge from £40 for any haircut that finishes below the jawline.  Their prices include a blow dry.  But if you have thick hair they charge an extra £15 for every additional 15 minutes for cutting.     I had my hair cut there before the name change.  I don’t understand the from part of the price. Had a look at the Blue Tit pricing which is very complicated. They charge depending on the stylist’s  experience.  Crab Salad in Peckham  -  short hair cut above the ear - from £69.    Long hair Cut below the ear from £80. Blow dry not mentioned as being included in the cut but is priced at £55 I noticed that Kuki charge different prices for men and women.  Doesn’t seem right if a woman has short hair and a man has long hair.   I used to go to a great salon in NW London  that charged the same price for men and women and stopped going when they upped their prices for women.
