Brixton chitter chatter, part 2

[quimcunx]

That rain that's raining on you, it's all down to Minnie the Minx
Welcome

It rained on me too.


MINNIE!!!!!!

 

[ajdown]

I rather enjoyed the sudden downpour just before midnight.

Meant all those antisocial late-night partiers around my way had to stop making noise so I could actually sleep.

 

[Biddlybee]

What's morley's kitchenware department like?

 

[quimcunx]

Quite good, I reckon.

 

[Biddlybee]

cheers, I'll stop on the way home then

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Quite good, I reckon.

good but overpriced I think

 

[Kanda]

It's good, I don't think it's overpriced really.. not compared to other Dept stores.

 

[quimcunx]

good but overpriced I think

Is it? I got my Prestige pans and Sabatier knives at half the price I would have paid in Debenhams.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

It depends on the offers they have on at the time. Their stuff priced at retail is quite pricey, but they always have loads of deals on most items.

 

[miss minnie]

Not kitchenware, but I bought a new duvet cover in the christmas sales at House of Fraser in Oxford St. The same item was £20 more at Morleys.

I had always assumed that Morleys was cheaper but I make sure to check online now.

 

[Biddlybee]

I only want a cake tin, but not sure where else to look that would be on my way home (no I don't have enough cake tins!)

 

[miss minnie]

Pound shop, 99p shop, cheapy shops in the market e.g. the big one in Popes Road, the one behind Argos etc.

 

[Biddlybee]

Didn't think of pound shop... will check there then on popes road. This is why I miss woolies.

http://www.dentonscatering.com/ Clapham North. Order a catalogue.. I love my Dentons catalogue

 

[Crispy]

The one behind argos seems to have an enourmous range when I went past the other day. That's where I'd head for kitchen things in Brixton.

I wouldn't get anything done... I'd just sit lusting after kitchen things

behind or on the same road?

 

[Crispy]

on atlantic road, opposite the rail station

 

[Biddlybee]

ah, cheers, cycle past there everyday

What Nanker says, and even then, you could still probably find it cheaper online even with delivery

Cheers, got what I needed for £1

I also ordered the catalogue to look at

 

[Orang Utan]

does anyone know when the best time to go to ferndale post office is?

 

[ajdown]

Presumably when it's open...?

 

[Orang Utan]

when is best for queues? i have a headache and want to spend as little time in there as possible

 

[miss minnie]

I always found that just after lunch (>2pmish) on a weekday meant that the queue was better than other times. Dunno about friday afternoons though.

 

[RaverDrew]

Fridays it's busy all afternoon, even Saturday mornings are quite busy too.

 

[quimcunx]

Paulo'z way was shut when I went past about 10.30pm last night. Is that normal?

Does your cat recieve benefits?

 

[Orang Utan]

no, but being a hipster, she gets her food mail order

 

[quimcunx]

Does anyone know whether Hootananny was showing the Engerland v USA football or the Scotland v Argentina rugby?
