In 1981/2 former Minister Phillipe Jumeau and myself set up a stall in Camden Passage in front of his shop, then Goldners Green and the very large Jewish Community, Families and the Police Station - some of the Jewish families selling in Camden Passage  later telling him of our experience in the Market.  He was a very Jowl  and special member of Culpeper Garden society.  He gifted me  a Washing machine for 14 Hermitage house the washing machine was brought in the flat with the help of a Seychellois. We share the story of the Channel Tunnel Project announcement by then Lady Thatcher at the Islington Business centre, In those days we were acquainted with a real Count  and Mother from Germany Black forest.  We have shared the issues of the very large Community emblem printed by HP company at one of Islington Business Fair.  The issues and very long saga of Seychelles the past 43 years. Up the Passage from his shop the very famous Italian family restaurant when they sold out I was gifted with the business very large wine rack carried and form part of the Living room furniture of 14 Hermitage House,   some of the images,  objects come from the Passage,   a very large print of Moses original.  A Seychelles Silver Coin collectors - A very large antique letter box a business up the Passage.  Mindful that it take a great deal of delicacy to build up positive acquaintance in the antique Trade/Circles.
