Latest news about shop closure

Our worldpay account expires 3 May 2008 and we will not be renewing this, although payments via Paypal will still be possible throughout the rest of May.

We are now very low on stock and are reducing everything that is left.  Super Smurfs we have left have just been reduced and playsets and buildings will be next.  Please keep an eye out for bargains as we will be working to clear a lot of stock in the next 7 - 10 days.

Thank you again for your custom over the past 5 years, we do appreciate it.

Purple, Pink & Red - Ready made gifts with a difference

If you are one of those people who never knows what presents to buy and particularly dislikes wrapping them up, then this new website could be right up your street!  Purple, Pink and Red aims to help those of us who are uninspired when it comes to gift buying.  They’ve gone one step further than the likes of Amazon who offer the standard gift-wrapping service, now you can purchase a truly unique gift which looks like you’ve gone that extra mile for someone.  If you are not an ideas person and really want to do something special for a friend, loved one or perhaps a work colleague, then look no further for unique gifts online.  Perhaps you are an office secretary always given the task of coming up with special rewards or gifts for colleagues, or you are often asked to buy gifts for the boss’s wife!  If you are uninspired by sending flowers, alcohol or food hampers and looking for something that little bit different, then check out all the different gift ideas.  Whether you want something silly for Secret Santa presents at Christmasunique gifts for children or a beautiful gift for a deserving recipient, you are sure to find something at Purple, Pink & Red so it is well worth a look!  And for those of us useless at gift wrapping, then the fact that the gift is boxed and beautifully presented is the icing on the cake!

Launch of website selling package holidays, flights and accommodation only

I’ve been working with a talented young web designer on the relaunch of www.24holidays.co.uk.  We are still working on adding the flight and accommodation only side but the package holidays are bookable now.  There are literally thousands of holidays to choose from and all from major tour operators so customers can be guaranteed it is safe to book.  One of the greatest selling points of this site is the amount of resort information.  Through every step of choosing a holiday you can see lots of information about the holiday destination from weather to local maps to general resort info.  Obviously there is information about your hotel or apartment accommodation, etc. as well!  With a vast choice of airports, and so many holidays to choose from, it really should make life easier when trying to book a holiday so we are very pleased with the end result.

I guess unless you are looking for somewhere to take your smurfs on their summer holiday 2008 then it won’t be of too much interest but I wanted to share with people the kind of thing I am working on these days.  Thank you for your interest!
