Val luvver, I assume you mean the shop. I thought that George was going to be renewing his dad's shop opposite Mathraki. The transformation from female unfriendly to female frenzy!  Hope he realises the business opportunity on offer and makes the supermarket into a place that women want to shop (and ogle????)

Chip off the old block, he loves women nearly a much as his ageing dad does. I suspect he is rather better at it though.

We once bought a pair of beach shoes in there, still priced in drachmas long after the euro ruined the Greek economy. I think the translation was 1 euro.

I wish George all the best of luck with his new adventure. I bet he makes a go of it.

Its such a shame that Arillas seems to be in the same boat as most British high streets, with more shops empty than open.always amazes me that Arilla Inn was allowed to fall into disrepair like it has, whatever may have gone on.such a shame to see my favourite place looking so sorry for itself!

We know nothing Karen luvver until we're there in person. And then for Jen and me it's just what they tell us. Eggy could tell me that Whispers was going to be a creperie in 2012 and I would believe him. (Well that's stretching it - I never believe a word he says...)

But I don't bl**dy care. As long as our Arillas folk make money and survive - that's what I care about. Totally selfish. What would I do without my Arillas??

Y'ole s*d! Now I've got to worry about Whispers. That'll teach me to keep my mouth shut. As so many wish I would.

But wouldn't it be just bl**dy wonderful to see new life and new blood revitalise Whispers. I would have done it myself many years ago if I'd had the money.

Just bit another head off your Jelly Babies for July Eggy. At this rate there will only be Jelly Bodies left by the time they arrive in Arillas. Keep up the banter and there'll only be the box left.

Take care, will see you and Weggy soon.

Just bite the legs off the jelly babies Phil. You could then give Eggy Legless Jelly Babies. I wanted to do that one year but I couldn't get the packet to look untampered with :-)
