The Walk The Never Was
Last March my friend Mark and were planning to do a 50 mile charity walk to raise money for Comic Relief. Unflortunatery Mark damaged his knee after only 10 miles which cost him two operations. The plan was that we would do the whole walk this September. It's not going to happen. The knee, while progressing nicely, just can't take the pressure at the moment. So, we're now looking to next Spring - watch this space. To see the photos from the original walk see the March blog

Christmas is coming

Yes, I know - it's far too early to start thinking about Christmas, we've not had summer yet! Sorry but the charity shops here in Alsager are already selling Christmas cards.
We are starting to get stock in but more importantly we are preparing for our Christmas preview night which is being held in October - more details will be posted here towards the end of September.
As far as the car park charges are concerned we have sent a letter to the council pointing out some of the discrepencies in their policies. Also, our daughter Sophie has written a letter to the P.M. putting her view of the situation, quite succinctly, for a 10 year old. This has ben posted and we'll see what comes of it.
The kids are now all back in school, the start of a new year. We've got some great lunch boxes - the most popular being the skull and cross bones design, closely followed by the red dotted.
We have also had our delivery of cheese knives and colive wood cheese boards, all looking very stylish. To view go to www.sunflowerathome.com/shop and click on the 'Culinary gifts' link.
As Christmas is just around the corner more and more stock will be coming into the shop - watch this space!!
