Have a Listen Now.
Well, it finally happened, and the much anticipated Tuckshop "Living room sessions" took place. We had the rather exciting experience of visiting Ugly Nephews " The Zetland Players" for food, fun and frolics. While We provided the flap jacks, The Zetland Players baked their way through a couple of their own tasty numbers, including their current singe "sailors and strongmen" and their own rendition of the Tuckshop Community Radio jingle.
Signed to the very good Ugly Nephew Records . The Zetland Players have continued to grow in popularity, performing their brand of "modern skiffle swing" in front of mesmorized audiences all over the UK. The session proved to be not only entertaining, but also a success. Much Alcohol was consumed,and the Tuckshop Community Flap Jack was quickly polished off. However we eventually parted and went our separate ways as the clock struck 12, saying our goodbyes, I watched in awe as they vanished into the distance in search of their second love, 10 pin bowling.
Tootal Scarves (Tootally Cool!)
As a Brand, Tootal is perhaps one of the oldest British labels that still exists and is again experiencing a revival amongst the new breed of "Modern Dandies"
Originating as far back as 1799!, Tootal has continuously produced fine silks which have been adorned by the necks of many a gentleman throughout its history. A staple of every discerning Gents wardrobe throughout the 1920's, 30's and 40's (apparantely my grandad looked quite the part in his).
However, as its appeal died along with the older working class men, it was quickly adopted in the 1960's, by the then incredibly rebellious new youth subculture, known as the Mods. Often finding the standard Tootal polka- dotted and paisley numbers amongst the older generations wardrobes, the Tootal scarf soon became the ultimate piece of their all important look, pivotally blending their sharp suits and parka coats together.
These new designs are out now! having been inspired by the old classics!!. . So if you can't find one amongst your Grandads wardrobe then at least you can still add a bit of welcome "Dandy style" into your life.
Flour Power Brownies (so good, they could easily take on Gillian Mckeith and WIN)
For many, the real way to get to anyones heart is through their stomach. With this in mind, it seems only natural to mention the absolute emotional roller coaster ride that is experienced when one first tastes an original Flour Power Brownie.
For those of you who have still yet to discover this absolutely beautiful invention, we are only to happy to be the bearer of good news as for several years these small, dense blocks of ecstasy have personally cured many a hungover morning at Borough Market, thus bringing happiness and smiles to quite literally everyone involved. However, Flour Power Bakery, it seems have not only mastered the art of a good piece of cake,but also produce a vast array of fine baked goods so why not drop them a line.
Their Brownie could possibly be the answer to world peace, so next time you need to say something important say it with a Flour Power Brownie!
