    I miss her too, despite her problems she always saw the funny side of things and she had me in stitches with some of the names she called her ex.

  • MSE Spy reporting back. She's fine and will post here asap but she hasn't got broadband at the moment and is having to nip over to the library when she can. When I got there the shop was still a wool shop but was the woman Obi or the southern lady? I felt a bit daft by saying to her "excuse me but have you had the shop long" I could see in her eyes she was thinking "oh no another one going to go on about the previous owners"!! (if you've read all the posts you'll understand). "Yes" she said "about four years" panic over thought I " oh are you Obi?" and it was, so all was well. She's got some good updates so I don't think she'll be long posting. I remember buying some buttons from her last year and couldn't help but think back did I copper up, did she see the £2 coins lurking in my purse which are only given out in times of life or death or God forbid did I give her a £20 note ha ha!!

    Just read this through from the start, i have been sat here sniggering away at some of the postings.
    Glad to hear Obi is still alive and well and still in a wool shop in Scunny.

    I still think she should be writing a book.
