SOS Angel

In this episode we find out how Coco Beautique on Camden Passage is coping with the lockdown and how the Coco team are helping their clients from afar with tips on how to stay tidy during this time of social isolation and they're not talking about the house!  As a resident and business owner on the Passage, Lorna gives her unique perspective on the atmosphere in life on lockdown in the area.  We discuss everything from lashes to landlords!  Coco Beautique can be found online at http://www.cocobeautique.com/ 

The lockdown extends far beyond physical shops and offices and impacts many self employed workers and freelances. Jimi has run his one-man-band window cleaning business in Islington for many years - although his East End character makes it feel more like a full orchestra!  We talk about frustrations of lockdown from fitness to fairy liquid and everything in between.  Grab a cuppa and have a giggle with us.  To catch JImi's Friday night streaming party follow @jimirocker on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/jimirocker/)

Coffee shops have long been an essential service in my book.  If you’re suffering withdrawal symptoms from not having your oat milk flat white or failing abysmally to create a beautiful love heart on top of your cappuccino then Leo at Kobo is your man as he tells us how Kobo coffee shop are keeping us caffeinated from a distance.  Kobo can be found online at https://www.kobocafe.co.uk/

In this episode of SOS Angel, I talk to Matt, the manager of Frederick's bar and restaurant - an Institution in the Angel community for over 50 years.  For me, Frederick's is the place to head after a long week's work to relax and catch up with other local traders over a cheeky Gin and Tonic or two.  Fred's is a treasured old friend that I am looking forward to a reunion with once the lockdown is over.  Frederick's can be found online at https://www.fredericks.co.uk/

There’s something fishy about our first Episode of SOS Angel - yep... you guessed it, I chat to Moxon’s Manager Sam Earles to find out how our friendly fishmongers are managing to continue serving customers both old and new as one of the few shops permitted to remain open on the Passage.  Moxon's can be found online at https://www.moxonsfreshfish.com/
