To apologise again to the woman whose foot I accidentally trod on on the bus this morning

[Hummuschocolate]

in North London. I tripped and trod on her foot as I was getting of the bus. I apologised twice but this apparently wasn't enough. I think its unlikely she was a mner but it is quite an mn area. So if she has stumbled across this, what a coincidence and I hope your day and your friend's day (who also looked a bit miserable) improved!

Why wasn't it enough?

She wasn't very happy, her exact words were 'Bloody hell! Can't you wait?'. Well I couldn't really wait as the door were about to open and I was walking towards them. Anyways hope her foot has survived

I would have trodden on her other one if she didn't accept 2 apologies

What is an 'MN area' just out of interest?

"What is an 'MN area' just out of interest?"

the mind boggles doesnt it...

Lots of people wearing Boden, and naice ham shops? .....

Ooo, I want to move to an MN area. Even if I got trodden on, it would be worth it for all the luffly scarves and naice ham at play dates.

Bet it was Crouch End.

Or Hampstead/Belsize park with lots of kids called Persepone & Dante...!

I thought of crouch end straight away owing to crappy tube links and more buses. Also I trod on someone's foot once in crouch end, so I bet that's the mn area

I live in a dodgy bit of east London known mainly for high levels of gang membership and lack of 'Olympic effect'. Yet at play group there is a Persephone. (My DH, bless him, took DD1 to the group when on paternity leave, and addressed the child as Pomegranate - he "knew it was something like that"). It goes to show you never can tell.

Theres a White Stuff, a Sweaty Betty, a Whistles, various nice independent clothes shops, children with orange blazers and the charity are very nice. Not Crouch end but almost.

Muswell Hill, of course

*the charity shops are very nice
