Well, we are now preparing for our THIRD week in the shop, and I'm extremely pleased to report that business has been going brilliantly; despite the road outside the shop dimly resembling the 'earth shake' from the Land Before Time.
We have also been very excited by the positive feedback from the customers coming into the shop - apart from the occasional put-out member of Greenwich's canine population looking for a snazzy new coat (apologies).
Us Pinksilver girls are also waiting patiently for something very important to occur at the shop.......................our first famous customer.
Arguably an exceedingly shallow seeming goal, it is nonetheless still a much awaited one, and was almost (although not really) fulfilled the other day, when I was pretty much convinced that Robert Pattinson walked past the shop. After several minutes of jumping around like an idiot and desperately trying to call everyone and anyone to relate the BIGGEST NEWS OF THE CENTURY it occured to me that, in fact, I wasn't actually 100% sure it was 'RPattz', and then that, I hadn't even got a good look at his face. And then that it was quite possible that it was merely an illusion created by a guy with his hood up and extremely wishful thinking.
So...........no real news then!
Will keep posted on the slightly pointless, but kinda addictive 'Celeb Watch.'
And now, to uphold the spiritual balance of the world, we will have 'Philosophical Quote of the Day': "Even when laws have been written down, they ought not always to remain unaltered." - Aristotle.
There, even a bit of politics slipped in there as well.
And now as we approach the winter months, where venturing out of doors only looks attractive when coupled with arctic-proof thermals, and where rain reminiscent of Noah's floods is the default weather - we at Pinksilver are brainstorming to get you pulling on the mittens and visiting us. With Halloween approaching, the (supposedly) mature and 'dignified' Pinksilver People have begun to regress into a childlike state of near hysteria at the prospect of dressing-up, pumpkins and sweets. And yes, we WILL be dressing-up.
Current work on decorations for All Hallows Eve include a lovingly hadcrafted cardboard witch and a.............palm tree? (Sometimes the creative juices go into overload). I'm contemplating having a Twitter/Facebook vote on what my Halloween costume should be - although this could possibly have disastrous results............
I shall update further in the next few days, and, er...if someone happens to bump into Rob - point him in the direction of the shop? Would be much appreciated.
Pinksilver People xx
