YOU THINK WE'VE HAD BAD WEATHER!!!!



I thought this might cheer you up!

This is a photograph Greg took on our recent trip to the Scillies_ see, things can get worse. However all was made better by an afternoon playing cards in one of the fabulous local hostelry's The Mermaid!!!! Excellent

The new ranges are taking off well which is always great to see. Our featured product in Period Living turned out to be the Cedar Nest Pocket and generated a good bit of interest and another free products feature in Septembers Country and Border Life. So keep a look out for that!

In the garden the wet weather seems to have been a bonus for the veg patch. we have had a bumper crop of red onions and beetroot, blackuurants and gooseberrys. The potatoes have been delicious and the sweetcorn are growing well. The only tradgedy this year has been the death of my spinach plants as they were suffocated by the proilific rocket and the tomatoes seem to be late.

Apart from that all is well and the rain also seems to have kept the weeds down, excellent!!

We are having a well earned break to Madeira in August .My beach holiday has been hijacked with a walking/birdwatching trip half way up a mountain in Madeira. I don't know how that happened? So i am afraid orders will be delayed that week, but you probably wont notice the difference if Royal Mail keep on with the strikes!!

Have a good break wherever you are going and i will spaek to you in september!!!

Best Wishes
