So, what is this newsletter all about?
Well it's many things. Primarily it is a way for us to keep in touch with you, our customers. But we don't go for the hard sell, we don't send you emails every five minutes with our latest offers. That's just a small step away from spam as far as we are concerned. We don't do it.

We want you to purchase our lovely items, of course we do, but equally important we want to provide a newsletter that is of interest, is genuinely useful and fun.

For this reason the newsletter is not weekly, fortnightly or even monthly, it is produced and sent according to the adhoc rule. When we feel we have enough really great articles and items of real interest to you, we send the newsletter out. And not before.

So that's all great but what's actually in it?
Each newsletter contains a selection, and in no particular order, of the following topic areas...

1. Editorial: Some words of immense wisdom that you cannot miss!!

2. Lifestyle: Ideas, issues, guidance, methods and thoughts about how we all live, may want to live, have been living or see others living! Not quite self improvement or life coaching, nor fully fledged personal development training but somewhere in between. Contributions from interesting thinkers will be a feature.

3. Money saving tips: Great ideas on how to save money.
