As the Spring and Summer trade comes to a slow and steady conclusion, it is time for a retrospective
look at the year so far...
                                        
 
 ...this document is a review of all the products that were available, for the most part this season.
 
We found that sales from some lines went on a lot longer and were more popular than we had expected and are now in the process of designing a growing programme for 2009, to reflect this.
 
The suggestions or comments page is there for you to use, should you have
anything that would help us complete this, in future growing programmes. 
 
Thank you to our exsisting customers for your trade this
season so far.

   a few months of rugby down under.
   We wish him all the best and are very sad to lose him.

   on the job of customer support, along with Mike (the owner), it 
   should be business as usual.
