The Gift Centre moved to its new location a few weeks ago. The main advantage of the new shop is that it has a wide staircase and lots more space upstairs. There is a lot of work to get it all ready and the framing workshop still needs kitting out.
But in another week people will be able to go up the stairs to the gallery where pictures are being hung as we speak.
Any idea what artist did these four pictures. He achieved cult status on Radio Oxford, went on to television stardom, and now has proved himself an accomplished artist in acrylics and oils.
saw the pictures originally in the old shop by Timmy Mallett and fell in love with them
timmy mallet rode past me on a bicycle near Marlow – but i was looking the other way so didn’t see him – my family did.
how’s that for a pathetic claim to fame?
I sat opposite Timmy Mallett on the train on the way back from Manchester a while back but didn’t recognise him at first (soberly dressed) though he did look familar. It dawned on me about an hour later, by which point the moment to shout “hey aren’t you Timmy Mallett?!” had rather gone so I never spoke to him 🙁
