We are all hands on deck as we head into Christmas - by far our busiest time of year, for these few weeks we have demands to create and deliver orders with very little or no notice, sometimes, we are requested to have orders the other side of the world in a couple of days - and you know what, we consider it a challenge and invariably we do it.
We're busy making hampers and gift wraps, like elves at the North Pole, actually it was so cold here yesterday that we could actually believe we were in the North Pole, the office (and me) have it cosy and warm whilst the kitchen - housed in a lovely 16thC barn without any insulation or even draught proofing freeze their pickles off. We are all hoping that we don't have the big freeze that we had last year with day after day of temps below -10c. We are just not geared up for that here in the UK. But we have supplies of grit at the ready, and down our road we have piles of salt appearing by the day (either that or some very busy termites havd taken over!)
If you are looking for the perfect gift for Christmas, pop in and see us in the shop or online and you'll find all sorts of goodies and christmas hampers and bags just waiting for you. If you are around the Lake District the first weekend of December, just call in to Hawkshead where the village is hosting a fabulous Christmas Fair, Late night shopping on Friday 3rd includes free wine and nibbles at Hawkshead and discount on hampers on the night too ! so come on over..........
