I have just got back from installing the Felt Mistress Christmas window for Selfridges London. It will be up until after Christmas. I haven't got photos of the window from the outside as they hadn't been unveiled before I left, but here's a quick installation pic.

Frang Tootle is considered the true originator of the “Croak Folk” genre and his seminal debut album “Songs of Pain and Discomfort” is still an influence to slightly aggrieved and mysanthropic song writers to this day.

Esteemed cravat-wearing critic, Uli Snooks, is infamous in the UK for being the first person to say “flumps” on live televison. His trusty walking stick (and fellow critic), Rondo, is always at his side but they have never been known to agree on anything. Rondo is the Siskel to his Ebert.
