I have a very good customer ( he's reading this ) who would like to buy a sheet of Black, Natural crepe. Does anyone have any idea if it is still available and from where ?.

Relax Mick.

 

Clever.. :)

 

Try E Healy & Son. They are an old firm. If they don't know there is no hope......Hang on this is an advert... Do we read this as:-

 

"A customer who would like to buy a sheet of Black, Natural crepe".....

 

Or

 

"Who would like to buy a sheet of Black, Natural crepe"?

 

I inserted my own punctuation.

Errr..... I am Edward Healy or more correctly his great grandson. I know where to get white crepe and brown crepe but this request, which is genuine , is for black crepe for a very particular job.. I remember seeing it when I was but a lad working for a shoemaker in Northampton in the early seventies. Can we say Northampton ? It won't offend anyone ? But I haven't seen any since . As a caring wholesaler who values the requests of his customers no matter how obscure we do try to satisfy their demands. ( That was an advert )

Thanks Rick, Nice to know you are on the ball.

 

Tom at Leather & Grindery has put some on one side for me. ( Brilliant firm Leather & Grindery )

 

I could have sworn there was another post on here that I was going to reply to. :-k Was there last night ......... gone this morning ? I must have been dreaming .

 

 

Regards
