There was an article in the Observer a couple of weeks ago about a lady who had opened a dresmaking/alterations shop in Church street arcade in Accrington, sorry can't remember the name of it but might be worth a look

What a coincidence, just when you were looking for curtain alterations and asking for folks help on here, fate takes you for a walk to the very shop you need and in less than 24hours as well, with luck like that I'd do the Euro lottery this week if I was you.

Wow, until now I didn't believe in Karma.

You know your problem Less ? You're a miserable old cynic so you are ! Why, these most fortuitous circumstances always come around, how many times have you lost a ring & been so despondent, you nip off to the fishmongers for a bit of haddock for yer supper & to make you feel better, lo & behold there inside said piscine is your lost precious ?

I suppose you don't believe in Fairies at the bottom of the garden either ?

The aformentioned shop is in the arcade, you won't see it at night.

Oh yes I do, Garinda is often there playing with the ducks and geese.
