Meet Lisa. As raven headed as I was fair and my firmest friend from the moment she literally said ‘do you want to be my friend’ when we were little through my first ever flight abroad to her grandparent’s place in Spain when we were 11 to always making my way to her mum’s fridge because she had butter (instead of the yucky margarine my mum preferred). Lisa took the photo of me and my boyfriend looking like little hippies with a Tower Records bag in Ravenscourt Park and she used to literally massage me to sleep when I had a bit of a nervous breakdown in our 20s. We lost touch for decades and met last week for a seven hour chat 😁. Boyfriend took this photo on my 18th birthday… the same dude in the hippy photo, the same dude I married who was equally delighted to catch up with her last week. Old friends just get you (I have an old school friend who will see this post - my kids say that NO-ONE speaks to me the way she does… they think it’s hilarious, I think it’s comforting familiarity).

It was left in a house in Blackheath. Westcombe Park Road to be more precise and the previous owner’s name was Olive Hancock - we’re talking 1964 that it came into my husband’s parent’s possession. It’s an absolute thing of beauty. Any information gratefully received. Please share far and wide!! What is it? What’s it for? Would a particular library or museum be interested?

For Christmas 2024 Sam went through the year’s sales and bought a magnet board and a map showing the US states and then attached the bestselling titles of each state to each state. Irish pins were the bestsellers in Mass. and Florida was F**k This S**t 😆 (Alis Volat Propriis continues to fly over to Oregon for obvious reasons). Fascinating and loved that we sold to every single state over and over! Stupidly didn’t see if the titles changed in 2025. Will do for 2026 -

Less of the ‘somewhat’ and more ‘excessive’ along with incandescent with rage would sum up the last month - EVERY thing that could go wrong did go wrong and the napkins that were supposed to be in were delayed… and delayed… I put them on the site as preorders (which I’ve never done before because if anything goes wrong I don’t sleep)… and it all went wrong. Customers have been amazing but we have had to refund a few because we’ve missed their deadlines (add lots of cringing to the myriad emotions of late!!). Anyway… THEYRE BACK IN STOCK and all preorders are leaving us today (which is nearly half of the stock!). ‼️

When I left home aged 19 I took one ex Army & Navy chest of drawers (which I still have) and three single sheets. My mum always did good linen - the laundry cupboard was full of antique lace and embroidered table cloths and then there were three Egyptian Cotton flat sheets that she’d invested in during the 70s that were just too good to use. So I kinda stole them when I left. I’ve used them every summer since and the pattern has nearly faded out. There are a lot of holes too now! Still, a rebellion of sorts - nothing should be kept back for best!

Hate to boast (welllll 😆). We’re up to 1097 x 5⭐️ reviews on Etsy. Here’s just the latest over the last few days. Obviously you get the same service and product on our site which I would highly recommend for so many reasons. 🍎

Because being next to the steamer in the pantry is clearly the coolest place in the house (it’s not).
