Oh my giddy aunt, there's another one!

LFS, that is. I was in Hereford today, and nipped into the very good haberdasher's* to get a new rotary cutter, mine having given up the ghost. The lady behind the counter said 'ooh, we've got this one, but you'd be better off going round the corner to our patchwork shop, they'll have more to choose from'. So off I trundled down an alleyway I'd never noticed, to a little courtyard I'd never noticed, and into another fantastic fabric shop.

My dad always used to confiscate my mum's cheque book when she went anywhere near a second-hand book shop. I think I might be heading the same way with fabric.

*You don't often see a very good haberdasher's any more. And isn't haberdasher a good word?
