Simple pleasures



I like nothing more than a good cup of tea, and a nice swim in the sea beats a day at the spa hands down. Simple pleasures is my thing. Just call me a cheap date. So it was with much happiness that I stumbled across my new favourite shop today, 'Utility'.

Based in Brighton's amazing North Laine area, an independent shopping person's paradise, Utility stocks a range of products that fit the brief 'Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful'. I'm talking pickling jars, proper tea pots made in Scotland (complete with woolen cosies), enamel pots and much coveted original Beryl plates (think church hall coffee morning). Their motto? Always something brewing.
