Me too. A weak joke based on the juxtaposition of her sig and her post. Am I really likely to be implying that PR is chasing up funeral business on the EDF?


Just to add, there is no actual child, ill or otherwise, ball, winter or even autumn, for that matter. There is a Green, though.

Let me explain here Mr. U+00A3 esquire.


Green also means, new, inexperience and un-ripened. Autumn is therefore ?green winter? or ?winter green? if you insist on being all poetic and shit. It has all the potential to be winter but hasn?t yet dipped its wick as it were.


The metaphor then stretches further into the realms of horticulture with the ball symbolising the seed of the season?s decline which is planted in autumn and ripens to fruition into winter.


Here the writer is cleverly juxtaposing the common imagery of life blossoming in the summer with his intentional reversal of the concept.


He then goes on to mention ?patinates? (which I think were Victorian, ladies under things) and ?taught skin? which just goes to show that like most authors he is using his art as a thinly veiled indulgence of his own perversions and is probably also a communist.

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying. 
    • Hello, Does this lovely little panther have a name? & Is he neutered & microchipped?
