We were very pleased recently to be asked to join Discovering Life, a fascinating new website that aims to offer it's members the very best of what's on offer in Britain with many special offers and discounts just for members. As membership is free for 2010 I'd definitely encourage you to sign up - no cost and lots of money off, can't be bad. Our page on the site went live today - and we are offering all Discovering Life members a huge 15% discount across our entire range.

Hmmm ..... Running a business is fraught with problems - just when you think you've got something sorted something else turns up to frazzle you. Our Summer 2010 catalogue went to print last week and was then shipped off to the fulfilment people so they could pop them in little plastic wraps and wing them off to you all, and then .... I received this photo showing me how they had turned up in Rotherham for mailing! I think someone was a little clumsy. This resulted in a bit of a panic as we had only allowed an extra hundred copies for the mailing and it looked as if more than that were unusable. In the end it wasn't quite as bad as we feared and we have managed to send the full mailing - but if your catalogue turns up with slightly dog-earred corners, you'll know why!
