The latest addition to our duck range is SUPERDUCK. He is not a bud duck he is a teeny bit bigger than them but he is cool. He has a removable cape! He is selling fast in the shop to all of our duck collectors and comic strip fans alike.
I am sitting in the shop and wondering if anyone actually knows that we open on Sundays! As we are in BS8 which is a group of independent traders in one building I have no choice. Problem is i know as soon as the wonderful shoppers on Park Street get wind of our opening it will have been decided that we should shut. So if you fancy a bit of a browse on a Sunday get in quick because i have a feeling this is not going to last long. By the way parking is free around these parts on a Sunday and today i have been giving out free chocolates!
Back in stock today is the retro kitsch classic tomato ketchup dispenser. I love these and i am so glad that we have decided to stock them again after probably a couple of years now. They remind me of the Wimpy bars in the 1970s when we used to have one of those bizarrely bright red round saveloy sausage rings in a bun. Aah the additives. You don't see such food anymore.
So Christmas is all done and dusted already and we were supposed to be having a day off today, but now that we know what is left after the rush we are busy getting things ready to put on the website. I have been going through the book section and we have some really interesting new titles for the website. check out Milk Teeth for soem lovely illustration. Anyway back to it , so Happy New Year and don't forget to drop in the shop or the website soon.
By far the most popular item on the website this christmas has been the little Henry battery operated vacuumn cleaner. It is so cute! We have been cleaning up lots of bits of dust around the shop with him and it actually works well.
We have managed to get hold of a few more that hopefully will be in on Monday so we probably will not sell out now for a few more days at least, so you will be able to get your hands on one on the site or in the shop if you hurry.
So we only have a few days to go now for ordering on the website. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to speak with us and had patience with a few of our glitches along the way, all of these are over now i hope. There is still a great choice of gifts available on the website, and lots more in the shop. Moving into the new year we will be concentrating on bringing more artists work to the website, and adding all of our jewellery. The site will grow and grow offering a truely random and eclectic collection. We look forward to seeing you there
Today finally the website takes credit cards so it is so much easier to use. There are lots of new bits and bobs in for christmas and things are coming in and going out again fast so you need to keep having a look at the website to see whats new.
Retro weather Fridge magnets are new and very funny. Not only do you get a set of old school weather signs to do your own weather forecast on the fridge, you actually get a Micheal Fish magnet so that you can put him into the montage.
