Shop on corner of South and Fore Street

Thought I saw Margaret Hart in there as I passed with what seems to be bolts of fabrics etc. Anyone know any details I was in the car so could't stop to ask her!! I wondered if she was moving and or expanding?

if this is the place opposite the Sportsman, I walked past last week and there were a lot of rolls of fabric piled up against one of the walls.

Yes thats the one, it was open as a "christmas shop" for a few weeks last year.

Well she's certainly outgrown the shop in Bull Plain. There's post for her just inside the door of the South Street shop as well. There's all sort of haberdashery in there. Maybe she's using it as an overflow. I'm not sure the location would be good for her.

She outgrew Bull Plain the day she moved in I wondered if she was splitting it having craft etc in one and wool fabrics etc in the other , is the Fore Street shop bigger?? No doubt we will find out soon!

I heard Harts were after a bigger shop in the Wash, but it shrank.

Shame she couldn't sew the 2 empty shops in The Wash back together then

Apparently if this new venture doesn't work, it'll be curtains for Margaret. I just told her to pull herself together.

Enough of all this wooly thinking, lets pin her down and ask her why she zipped down the road.

Am I guessing that this particular topic is now just about *sewn -up*? It certainly has been a rich tapestry of word-play! *J* [img]http://digilander.libero.it/le.faccine/faccinea/faccende/00004015.gif[/img]

In a similar vein, I recently had a very attractive young lady in our art shop, staring me staight in the eyes with the wonderful question: 'can I get felt here?' Sadly the answer had to be in the negative. Sent her to Bull Plain...

I was in Botsfords once when a woman came in and asked for 4 candles, as in the old Two Ronnies sketch.
