Last night I appeared on the BBC2 programme Mary Queen of Shops and just want to thank everyone for all the messages and emails saying lovely things thank you so much. Was an absolute joy taking part and showing Denny & Dazzle around my home I have the hugest admiration for anyone who runs their own business – its a tough world out there in retail land and with Mary’s help and all the other experts on the programme think Denny & Dazzle now have a superb store which can evolve and move forward. Totally endorse and agree with Mary’s view on the importance of independent stores on our high streets which are way too bland and boring in my opinion. We need more unique stores that tantalise, thrill and seduce just look at Paris and how fabulously they endorse and support the small guys. Check out Denny & Dazzle’s website http://www.37oldlondonroad.co.uk – oh and an image of their new look store below:
I was channel surfing last night and stumbled across Mary Queen of Shops on BBC2. I saw a wall painted in down pipe and am illuminated moose head and said to my sister “that kinda looks like Abigail Ahern’s style” and then there you were! Your place is amazing!
Thank you thats very sweet of you to say xx
Love your house and what did you do to the drawing room of the gorgeous georgian house?
Still working on it – there have been some structural changes to the property so we are just waiting from them to finish and then its all systems go x
I thought your house was stunning. What did you do with the drawing room in the lovely georgian house?
Sounds like a great show! Wish I could see that, and I think this store’s exterior has great personality! xo
It’s on bbc iplayer for anyone who wants to check it out:

I only caught the tail end of it. Damn! Hopefully they will re-run the episode again.
And Denny and Dazzle’s new shop is amazing!
Oh how I wish I had access to Mary to help build a business.
The transformation is stunning.
I’ll check it out on iplayer, I missed the show.
I watched the programme Abigail. Great stuff. Your home looks even more amazing on the tv.
I’m a big fan of Mary’s. The way she manages to enthuse even the most reluctant of people is inspiring.
Thank you x
