The Thousands

A vague memory I have of first year uni involves timidly descending a staircase in a seedy part of Wembley (yes, Wembley has a seedy part) to a dungeon filled with strange mechanical implements and the glare of a man who seemed to have much too much in common with a goblin. This particular quest was not in search of fellow dungeons and dragons role-play buddies, but for a similarly essential item by which to expose my angst in thinly-veiled metaphor: typewriter ribbon.

By gum! If only I’d known then that out in the sunshine of William Street there was a no less eccentric, but completely goblin-free store from which to purchase the elusive inky material, and every other stationery item my nerdy self could require.

Sicari Stationery humbly proffers a slightly ramshackle assortment of items: 30c domino-style erasers, tartan pencil cases, dusty to-do lists, mini aquarium paper holders and the famous $1 cans of drink! It’s a small offering, but everything you need is there, so there’s no need to be paralysed by the burden of choice of the stationery mega-stores. And no need to be scared of fanged goblinoids either, unless they come visiting from Wembley.
