 Last month I wrote of the benefits of shopping locally and told you that I would let you know in this issue of shops that would be open for extended hours prior to Christmas for your shopping convenience. I am delighted to let you know that many of the villages shops have agreed to open later until 8 pm for the four Thursdays prior to Christmas: The first of these dates is Thursday 29th November - - this is the evening of the Carol Concert and switching on of the Christmas Lights in the High Street, should be fun. Then the three Thursdays in December prior to
Christmas, the 6th, 13th & 20th The following businesses have confirmed that they will be opening late on these four Thursdays: Starting at one side of the High Street, in a kind of clockwise direction: Simon East Butchers - Traditional Butchers, Home-Made Pies & Sausages. Order Turkeys, Geese and Gammons for the Christmas period Desire & Design – Lifestyle Gifts for Everyone, Gorgeously Desirable with Fabulous Designs J Sheffield - For Everything Electrical and State of the Art Entertainment Systems Over the Moon - Stylish Gifts, Posh Pots & Plants, Fresh Flowers & Fine Chocolates, Something For Everyone – including yourself Deli-Licious - Coffee Shop, For a Refreshing Snack & Drink Hospice of St Francis Charity Shop - You Never Know What Gems You Might Find Here Duo Barbers - The Gentlemen Could Visit Here Whilst The Ladies Shop Abbots Home & Garden - The Local Hardware Store With Gift Ideas, Even Something For Your Pets Garston TV & Radio - Full of Those Fascinating Gift & Gadget Ideas For The Hard To Buy For Hairshare Hairdressers – It’s Party Season, Get Your Crowning Glory At Its Best Velvet Jewellers - , Precious & Semi-Precious Stones in Silver & Gold in Leading Edge Design in Very Wearable Jewellery I believe there will be more shops joining but haven't had 100% confirmation from them yet. Please support this initiative from your local businesses, and don’t forget the benefit of our large FREE Car Park! Then after shopping why not make an evening of it and enjoy a meal in one of the fine restaurants our village has to select from. Have fun – I’ll be back in the December issue to give an up-date on this new shopping experience.
Till then, Trish
