20/08/16: "Lovely gentlemen" (MS)

Woman at the till in MS: Multiple Sclerosis Society, East Barnet, upon seeing myself and four other men browsing in her shop:

"My goodness! All these lovely gentlemen! Close the door! I don't often get this many men in the room at once..."

Sign outside MS: Multiple Sclerosis Society in East Barnet. The "Rocking Chair & Stool" had sold, but the "Stero system & Speakers" were still available.

28/05/16: New shop (MS: Multiple Sclerosis Society)


MS: Multiple Sclerosis Society, East Barnet. The old MS closed down. Pleased to see that this has opened just around the corner. A friendly blackboard outside the door states "Thank you E Barnet for your great support".

23/05/15: Great Train Robbery (MS: Multiple Sclerosis Society)

MS: Multiple Sclerosis Society, East Barnet. Two of the staff and a customer were deep in (loud) conversation about the Great Train Robbery. One of the three appeared to have some insider information on the event. An underwhelming selection of books and CDs. The Best of The Nolans was about as exciting as it got.

17/01/15: Shania Twain (MS: Multiple Sclerosis Society)

MS: Multiple Sclerosis Society, East Barnet. Good to see Bob Dylan's Chronicles on the bookshelf. Some nice plain white mugs at 50p. A young man was delighted to find a 1991 Super Bowl programme, and started discussing it with a member of staff, who said that her son went to the Super Bowl every year. Can that possibly be true? CDs on offer included two copies of the ever-present Come On Over by Shania Twain (one with sticker, one without), as well as the usual unloved Dido and Celine Dion discs. No purchase made.
