Observations of an obsessive antique dealer...

Ladies and Gentlemen...

... tables and chairs - yep - the bistro table is back outside the shop!!! On it is a nice bunch of white flowers and a storm lantern with a candle burning - is that for me?

Lady Decorum is dressed in virgin white today - like a polar bear. As usual she is dusting her window an mopping her floor tiles... I have a trick poo which I must glue to her floor...

A good hair day...

Looks like Lady Decorum is celebrating the summer sun with a makeover. She arrived at the shop sporting a French looking blue and white striped top - like the nonce fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier.

She's also had a new hair doo, however, the shop hasn't had a makeover and the window display is still the same...

This week...

Lady Decorum is back this week... The shop is missing the usual clutter outside - so I'm wondering if other traders have become pissed off with her bistro furniture, flower pots and other clutter...

However, as I write she has placed an ornate planter with lillies outside - hang on its gone now...

I've been too busy to watch the cleaning dusting and re-arranging this week.

Missing a missing lady

It is Wednesday and the shop is still closed - I keep looking out for my Lady Decorum and wondering where she is?

Could she be on Holiday?
Perhaps she won the lottery?
Maybe she is sick?


I'm going to make a missing person poster...

Où est ma dame ?

Monday and Tuesday - the shop is closed - where is my Lady Decorum?

This is most unusual and I am worried...

The cushion and the throw

This morning has been entertaining watching Lady Decorum dressing the chair in the window - it must be hard work getting a cushion and a throw to look right?

The precision of her arrangement is perfect - she'll move the cushion an inch - walk outside to view her masterpiece, scratch her head and move it back an inch?

I have been enjoying this performance for the last hour or so...
