@Manter and @Minnie_the_Minx, enough of the @ already!

Sorry

@Greebo

 

[Greebo]

Sorry <snip>

There you go again. FWIW most of the traipsing was for the sake of a care package. In deepest darkest Kent there are pockets of cultural deprivation where the only spices are in tiny sachets or jars.

Can't you order it online?

I sent himself out to the shops to get some fresh air

Not as cheaply as buying it in this area. And buying fresh chillies online is a bit hit and miss.

They can't get chillies in deepest Kent?

 

[Greebo]

Only one type, and only if they pay though the nose.

She's going to eat you with chilli

 

[Manter]

She's going to eat you with chilli

Would it be terribly inappropriate to say that sounds rather fun?

 

[Greebo]

<<Adds Greebo to list of people she's slightly scared of>>

No need, I'm mostly harmless.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I'll let Greebo answer that!

Just remembered there is a new shop opening in Herne Hill tonight - there is free drinks

It's called Lowie's and it looks like a clothes shop (for women.) 115 Dulwich Road.

E2A: here is the flyer

 

[leanderman]

think the person behind is the person pictured

When they say, "tunes by PC" do they mean they've just put their laptop on random play?

...... That or a copper moonlighting, possibly doubling up as security

That scarf is sooo impractical

 

[Manter]

That scarf is sooo impractical

I was trying to work out how you undid it. at me

 

[shakespearegirl]

I don't understand how you undo it and its too tight to lift over your head, or am i being stupid

 

[Manter]

I don't understand how you undo it and its too tight to lift over your head, or am i being stupid

you can pull it apart enough to lift over your head, i think

 

[Greebo]

I was trying to work out how you undid it. at me

I was trying to work out how much of that was her own hair (instead of add ons) and how/where it was fixed in place.

 

[shakespearegirl]

Oh just realised I have a Lowie hat which although very fetching isn't terribly functional

 

[peterkro]

I'm guessing if you pull one end it'll compress the other and let it slide over your head.

 

[gaijingirl]

I don't understand how you undo it and its too tight to lift over your head, or am i being stupid

that'd go over you head easy.. especially if you look at the woven design in the front which will give loads of extra headspace when moved.

 

[Manter]

i think its her own hair, 2 plaits pulled round the same side- so no Heidi stuff on the other side.

would be my guess.


Aaargh, I was going to go for a run, and instead I am critiquing hair!

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

I figured she knitted her scarf at the same time as plaiting her hair and something went wrong

 

[editor]

The woman looks like she's doing a semi-facepalm.

 

[Boudicca]

I don't think the picture is the owner - she has red hair but is a lot shorter than the model. Their stuff is a bit pricey but very nice.

That's the classic "must keep one hand glued to my head or it'll fall off" modelling option.

I was waiting for someone to say 'that's me' or 'that's my wife'
