All I want is some standard candles, to go in my advent candle ring. Three purple violet, one pink rose, and one white. Went into John Lewis, who are normally wonderful and have racks and racks and racks of single candles and boxes of candles in all the possible colours your little heart could desire, and some you wouldn't give house room to unless you were under the influence of some fairly major psychotropic drugs.
Err.
No single candles At All.
Fine, I'll get a box, it's not like they go off.
Ivory, green, white, gold and silver.
That is Not Helpful. I know they're in the middle of a refit, and thus their stock is a bit restricted, but that's a bit daft.
Does anyone know where I can get single candles, in purple and pink, preferably in central London? I looked in the Catholic bookshop where I got the candle ring, and again they only have multi packs. And the candle shop which used to be in Covent Garden has closed.
