Christmas Is Finally Here!

For us buyers it’s a hectic time of year getting prepared for our busiest season in the spring but we still have to see how the current season’s stock is performing and of course that involves trying some things out. Carrie came into the office on Monday morning very excited about her new Chestnut roaster, she is responsible for buying the winter fuels and other fiery accessories we sell in the Garden centres and having an open fire at home of course makes her a true expert... I think she really needs to get out more, but then I am a bit jealous, she really had chestnuts roasting on an open fire!
We are now all counting down to the end of the week, but this years office Christmas lunch will be extra special. Two of our longest serving ladies are retiring, they’ve put in 27 years between them and we also have an engagement and a pregnancy to celebrate... Happy times!
Well this will be the last blog from me this year, we’d all like to wish you a great holiday and all the best for 2012...
