With the newsletter just released, the ringing of my ditty from my Grandmother, ‘Ash before the Oak and we’ll have a soak, Oak before Ash and well have just a dash,’ has grown louder in my ears: the heavens have opened, rainwater pours from the guttering.
Nevertheless, loads to shout about here. Plenty of lovely offers on the site and some top new products. The Easy Hammock has to be the bargain of the summer. 
At £40 I had to confirm the price twice. Anyway, dear readers, there are only 30 of them and they won’t last and when they’re gone they’re gone (WIGIG). And I’m in for couple, so we’re already down to 28. Another WIGIG is the Grand Central Terminus outdoor garden clock – quite small but perfectly proportioned, this is a real cracker. Perfect for a patio or driveway.
The very popular black Luytchens bench is joined by it’s cream twin,
and I have a feeling this one will do just as well.
The office has had a rather spectacular filing cabinet upgrade, although while shiny and impressive they are just a fraction too grey and dreary.
Building work continues on the new warehouse next door. Apologies to those of you whose calls have been interrupted by jack hammers, angle grinders and mouthy builders. But I managed to sell a few Hanbury teak chairs to one of the brickies. ‘Blimey, all your stuff that reasonable.’ He bought four at £50 each, and then his mate came along and bought another four. Bargains galore, or they’re selling them on somewhere.
Finally a new addition to the site appearing (as we find the time) in drips and drabs, is a wonderful range of stone features, from stone benches to magnificent stone urns. These are costly to transport so please be aware there are additional delivery charges subject to your postcode.
Better get back to the packing.
So long.
James
