This month we have suddenly found ourselves surrounded by cartoon imagery!
We have Simon Carter pieces - bags and wallets many which have the dynamic signature cartoon design on the interior.
We have a Hide All employee, Sam Mills who sells comics every Thursday in Greenwich market. See Twitter.
Spike Milligan’s popular range of cards (courtesy of Woodmansterne) are sold in both stores. Catches the moment we think - as all the best cards should!
With the best weather of the year so far everyone at Hide All was eager to enjoy the outside this week.
Mick and Pauline found their way to Eastbourne to enjoy the sea air, white cliffs and coastal views.
…And what a way to enjoy the lunch break with sandwiches on Potter’s field, a Tower Bridge hotspot for the locals.
Or in Greenwich Park for our store nearby.
…one day, we hope! Hide All Shad Thames is where our singers work - we have Louise, well known to all you Hide All customers. Not only is she a criminal justice graduate and a volunteer police officer, but she’s a singer too. From school choirs to public performances, she is now toning up her skills on contemporary rock and musical theatre thanks to her new teacher Matt Heanes. And how did she hear about Matt Heanes? From colleague Andrew, singer in the Ideals.
Sarah who’s based in our Hide All Shad Thames store, arrived in South East London this December fresh from Elizabeth, South Australia. She entertains us with stories of sunshine, barbies and Barossa wines.
Barossa Valley, one of Australia’s most famous wine-growing regions, is home to Penfolds Grange, Jacob’s Creek and Sarah’s favourite wine Klauber Shiraz made at the Kies Winery.
I’m missing most, says Sarah, my sunshine, my bbq-ed sausage-sizzles with loads of tomato sauce and my Vegemite and cheese sandwiches!
A few of our favourite things and the blogs that we think do them best…
Books - dovegreyreader scribbles, a Devonshire based bookaholic, sock-knitting quilter who is a community nurse in her spare time. Pauline absolutely loves this blog - the reviews, opinions and reports of daily life in the West Country. Familiar territory for Pauline!
Clothes and Colour - whatkatiewore, a different outfit every day. We find this a very addictive blog, the soap-opera of the web. Still, she’s wearing the same trousers as Pauline has from Whistle this season.
Football - Charlton Athletic Online, news, views, opinion, previews and reports on Charlton Athletic Football Club by Pedro45!
Gossip - Rachel’s blog, what students do when they’re not working at Hide All or writing essays!
Arts and Crafts - Hello Lucky, all things stylish, vintage, and handmade. The reason why we started blogging and a big influence on our buying for the stores.
When the weather is cold and the days get dark, there is nothing better than curling up with a good book! We are keen readers and bookgroup members here at Hide All. So here goes with a list! Best read this winter…
1) Cecelia Ahern- ‘The Gift’. Rachel’s chicklit choice is full of Christmas sparkle and an intriguing plot.
2) Matt doesn’t know but was hidden in ‘The Great Divergence’ by Pomerantz for many a hour! (What!!!!!)
3) ‘The Help’ by Kathryn Stocket - Pauline’s distraction from December retail melt down.
4) ‘Return of the Native’ - Don’t we all love and adore Hardy’s work - audio book read by Alan Rickman - listened by Mick! Christmas present from Pauline. Self interest rules in the Gebbett household.
5) The Virginia Andrews trilogy - ‘Flowers in the Attic’, ‘Petals on the Wind’ and ‘If There be Thorns’ - has kept Louise just about alive and kicking as she fought off the flu!
6) ‘Y the last man’ by Brian K Vaughn is Neil’s choice. True to geeky form - boys will be boys!
Next week - best read of 2010. Watch this space!
Tower Bridge Neil went to see Santa last Friday. Travelling on board the Santa Special - Kent and East Sussex steam railway from Tenterton in Kent to Bodiam it was, according to young Neil, a wonderful December day across snowy fields and icy valleys. Neil asked Santa for some Arsenal points but Ellie (aged two), Neil’s niece, was more than happy with her pop-up zoo animal book!
The Union Chapel to see The Unthanks is Pauline’s choice - what a perfect venue!
Along with the Barclays ATP World Tour Tennis Finals at the O2 arena.
Rachel has been to see Complicite’s ‘Shun-kin’ at the Barbican Theatre, and is looking forward to the Christmas Cabaret at the Greenwich Dance Academy, featuring Hoop La La.
Mick’s about to buy tickets for Gilbert and Sullivan’s ‘Patience‘ at Greenwich Theatre with a 14-piece orchestra - expecting another good night of entertainment in SE10.
Hide All weekender and resident blogger, Rachel, was lucky enough to have a mini-break in beautiful Bath this month. Aside from the lovely views and interesting history, one of the trip’s highlights was a visit to Sally Lunn’s tearoom for the famous Bath Bun. Tea and cake seem to be a theme this month on the blog. I wonder why…
