Also, I just remembered that I once went in looking for a soldering iron, and they didn't have one in stock, so they lent me their own for a couple of days. Just lovely people

It's also the kind of place that you can go and say 'do you have any [whatever] and if they haven't got it there and then, they'll have it for you tomorrow in the exact quantity you need. They also sell items from multipacks separately 😍

The family who run this shop have been in the neighbourhood since 1977. It's an absolute hub of the community. Until recently they were in a bigger unit next door. When I saw the To Let sign I actually went in and said 'please tell me you're not leaving' in mildly panicked tones

All these songs remind me that I spent the summer of 1990 living out of boxes in our spare bedroom because my dad had promised to decorate my bedroom. He finished it in 1993 #totp

I feel a concept album coming on. There's got to be a Power of Love on it as well. And a Hold On.

Up above the streets and houses
Crane is spinning round
Spraying Gary's diarrhoea
Over the ground

Paint the whole world with a crane poo
