Mr Kleen
92 Turnham Green Terrace
London W4 1QN
Following the recent cloacal theme and yesterday's somewhat unsavoury video, I thought we could all do with freshening up. And where better than Mr Kleen of Turnham Green? (A possible inspiration for a new rhyming shops blog.)
As evidenced in this photo, Mr Kleen enjoys a remarkably busy passing trade. Note also how the gentleman inside the store is immaculately turned out, while those outside apparently place personal appearance somewhat lower on their list of daily priorities.
Mr Tweets has made up a joke about Mr Kleen, which I have somewhat wearily agreed to repeat here.
– Hello, is that Mr Kleen? I have some stains on my cricket whites that simply won't shift. Where are you based?
– Turnham Green.
– Well, I'd rather get them cleaned if possible!
Mr Tweets, this is why you don't have many followers!
Mr Tweets, Mr Tweets... this is a joke old enough to have come from the dusty portfolio of Mr B Forsyth.

I tried to tell him.
