We are closed from December 25th to December 26th, and on January 1st. Yup, that's all the time off we get. The website will still take orders during our absence and any orders over this period will be despatched on Wednesday, Dec 27th, then January 2nd onwards.

All regular mail and orders going by courier will be despatched up to the 23rd but please order early. These are the Royal Mail posting dates for delivery before Xmas.
