Hours for the rest of this week...

I'll be spending some time out the shop this week to participate in some of the sessions BID for Galashiels have put together for Learning at Work Week. It's important to me to keep learning and preparing myself and my business for the best future possible, even if it creates a little temporary inconvenience for my customers. I've got lots of new stock arriving this week to soften the blow. 😉

Wednesday 20th May - Open 11.30am til 5pm
Thursday 21st May - Open 2pm til 5pm
Friday 22nd May - Open 10am - 1.30pm
Saturday 23rd May - Open 10am til 4pm

And if you fancy a wander tomorrow morning (Wed) the amazing Stewart Wilson/Tweed Valley Blogger will be leading a "Galashiels - Built on Business" walk at 10am from Market Square. Free to attend. Booking link below in comments.
