Why does Pan want us to decorate the tree all the way from Norway - we'll never be back in time! smiley - huh

*goes out to the alley to ask Pan but can only hear loud snoring coming from deep beneath her eclectic blanket, decides not to disturb. decision not to disturb ratified by the sign next to Pan saying "DO NOT DISTURB" written in thirty-foot high letters of fire*

Yes, Chippendale and Haffelwaffel. Didn't they use to work in the furniture department of Grace Bros. department store?

I seem to remember that they used to have monthly sales competitions to see who could sell the most Welsh Dressers. It all came to an ugly conclusion when Mr. Chippendale decided he preferred the Welsh to remain undressed. Mr. Happenblatter was most disgusted by this and left in righteous indignation! (Something of an improvement because last time he was left in Lingerie, which is on the third floor just past homewares.smiley - whistle )

So, yes. That is indeed when Mr. Hugelflugel rose to the position of Chairman of Grace Bros.(He pressed the wrong button in the lift.) and now there's a department named after him in every department store in the world. But... *hushed whisper (as opposed to what?.. a really loud whisper?) Pan mumbles something about keeping the noise down and not forgetting to feed the Norweigan tree-goblins, then rolls over and resumes her symphonious snoring* No-one knows what they sell there!

And that's the story of Mr. Haberdasher and his department store department!

Bartender wakes up from some serious hybernating and looks around to see what heas changed in the last few months.

Comes to the conclusion that nothing has changed and nestles himself in a new nice and coosy position. But then, the stranged thing, there people in the br that want to order drinks, this has never happened before whats going on in here
