Where has the online shop gone?

You may have come here expecting to find our online shop which has been running for a couple of years.

While running the shop we found that a large part of our time was being spent canceling fraudulent credit card transactions.

We have therefore decided to stop trading on the internet for the time being and devote our resources to our local customers where we can provide our usual outstanding levels of service.

We are looking into a link up with one of our major suppliers which should soon bring the online shop back but with our supplier handling the transactions and distribution of orders so watch this space.
