This particular sister had the coldest windiest big birthday last year but this year we’re able to celebrate that milestone in a little more style. So sadly that means the shop will be closed for a few extra days.

We’re open all this weekend, closed Monday through to Friday next week and then normal service resumes next Saturday 3 July.

Our solar lanterns look very happy in the garden despite the serious soaking they’ve had in the last couple of days! We have some more stock arriving next week.

Don’t forget it’s the Woburn Market tomorrow and we’ll be open as always on Sundays 11 to 4. Let’s not mention the forecast - it could change!

So not surprisingly our grandmother May Minchin was born on the first of May way back when. Here she is with her husband Bill and their four daughters at their Golden Wedding in 1970. From left to right Eileen, Nancy, Thelma & our mother Peggy rocking a black evening trouser suit!

There have been so many glamorous images of the Du

There have been so many glamorous images of the Duke of Edinburgh over the last few days. This one is special for us though as the man up front looking after the Queen & Prince Philip is my husband’s late Uncle Clive who was hired in 1948 aged just 18 to race & maintain the Bluebottle and skippered the yacht for many years through to 1960, including at the 1956 Melbourne Olympics. Sadly we never had the chance to meet Clive, by all accounts a lovely man.
