Lily Allen gets helping hand from Harrods boss
July 29th, 2008 @ 4:22 AM • 270 Comments • POSTED BY admin

When we moved into our new flats pals sent a couple of cards and a bottle of cheap plonk while our mums chipped in with a set of matching towels.

Not so Lily Allen …

When Lil moved into her new place all her mates rallied round to help. One even made her Smile by saying her dad could help sort out some top-notch white goods for her on the cheap.

And lucky Lily’s mate just happens to be Camilla al Fayed – whose dad just happens to own Harrods.

And not only is he the nation’s finest shopkeeper, Mohamed al Fayed is also one of the most generous daddys in the world. Jealous? Well, maybe just a tad…

A family friend said: “Lily’s flat is lovely, but it helps when you’ve got friends in high places. When she told Camilla she was moving into her new place she jumped into action and asked her dad if he could help Lily out.

“Of course he said ‘yes’. Not all of it was free, but he gave Lily a massive discount – well over half price – on household stuff that should have cost more than £30,000.

She picked up things like washing machines and dishwashers to make her house completely top-of-the-range.

“He really likes Lily … they met when she opened the Harrods’ sale for him a couple of years ago and got on like a house on fire.

“Mr al Fayed let her have the run of the store that time – and he was more than happy to do that for her again.

“He is always very generous with his friends.”

    Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

  25. This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
