I looked it up on Google and I can't find anything!


I tried a new salon this week in Tooting. It is called 'Shilpa's' - as in Shilpa Shetty! I think she owns it. My mother wanted to try eyebrow threading because she envies my perfect arches (admires own image in compact mirror). I took Brenda to Shilpa's because I had been going to Shavata at Harrod's and I knew that my mother would tell me off when she found out how expensive it was, so I needed to find somewhere cheaper.


Anyhow, I took Brenda in, and for a joke I said, 'remove everything below her eyelashes' - OHMYGOD! It was like a sandstorm in the salon. I couldn't bear to look. That woman had no sense of humour and lets just say that my mother was thoroughly depilated...

I've never found anyone who does a decent arch in London. I wasn't impressed by Shivatta but I got an assistant and I swear I came out of Harrods looking permanently surprised. There's a lady in NYC who gives me movie star brows (no, not Lassie) but I don't get to her often, obviously.

No, by a lovely Hungarian lady with a nice fast technique. It's all in the wrist, apparently. And she doesn't seem to mind when you cuss and swear, which is a bonus. She's heard it all before.


Does Mrs Miyagi have a salon? I would give her a go?

    • This presumably hasn't been done by vandals. It's hardly a Sycamore Gap situation. So if it's been done by professionals, unless it was a mistake (unlikely) there must have been a good reason, as it would have cost money. It would perhaps have been a good idea to put a notice on the tree explaining why such drastic work was done, but usually (I think) it would be either because of disease (often not noticeable on the surface) or that the roots or branches  were endangering nearby structures. As already said, nobody on here is likely to know. The tree department in Southwark Council are helpful in my (admittedly limited) experience. Please post on here when you have found out, as I agree what's left of the tree looks pretty odd. Depending on why the work was done, possibly they intend to remove the rest as well?
    • I have a very stupid question. I want to get a SIM card to put in an old mobile as a back up,  in case despite my best efforts my mobile gets stolen and I have no way of contacting anybody quickly, eg banks. Can I just buy any old cheap pay as you go  SIM card and put say ten pounds on it and it will then be fine for years (with the phone kept charged!) even if I don't use it, or do I have to use the phone  every so often to keep the SIM card valid?
    • I hate to see trees cut down to such an unfinished state. Unless the tree is home to wildlife, an effort should be made to remove & replace. Otherwise, it's just so useless & unsightly.
    • Given the level of care in Dulwich Park, I would not expect this to be careless or unnecessary. It will grow back.
