[reetpetite]

Went pass today and there is a big hole in the window !

[steveo]

Notice I've resisted the temptation to plug my book London Babylon which is on display in Chener's window.

[reetpetite]

Maybe because its been nicked by whoever broke the window.!

[steveo]

Praise indeed

So SteveO, if you had an opinion on the matter might you say that the busted window and the alleged lashing of your books was carried out by:

A. Damned goodfernothing vandals who are robbing both author and vendor of valuable income. Hear the author's pain in telephone interviews with Nick Ferrari and Jon 'Gaunty' from a radio near you.

B. Zealous book reviewers from OZ and IT, who were unable to wait for the official review copies, got pissed-up in the EDT and decided to launch a guerilla attack on the counter-cultural grounds that 'words are for everyone' and that Steve and John aren't breadheads and down with the people.

And anyway it's what Mick Farren would have done.

For a special no-prize link the publicist you think might be most likely to adopt strategem A or B.

Might it be, 1 Andrew Loog Oldham 2. Max Cliford. 3. Tony Barrow. 4. Andy Coulson.

Who threw the concrete block through our window last night?

No idea John, I noticed this morning as I waited for the bus and couldn't make sense of it.

We all like your shop, glad to see your window has been repaired. I suspect you shall never have the answer to your question.

Best wishes,

Ann

What a vile thing to do.

[HonaloochieB]

Yes sorry to hear that John, despite my flippancy above it is a pointless and ugly thing to do, I suspect drink may have played a part. Hope it doesn't cause you too much bother.

Perhaps they thought the new improved fascia was a step to far and catering to the Clapham arrivistes so decided to take the overall ambiance back a few decades.

[SimonM]

With all those bars and things over the road maybe CCTV will offer clues?

Maybe john should invest in some bars or shutters for the new window, as he seems to be having an overhaul. Just an idea.

Maybe it was one of your customers whose orders you "decline"

[northlondoner]
