A challenging start to the new year

Well, we are back at the frock face after an enjoyable festive break, having gained at least a dress size and simultaneously lost a few roof slates in the recent storms. If you have ever tried finding a working (and sober) slater on 2nd January, which is a public holiday in Scotland, you will probably sympathise. We were just glad the rain abated until the affable Kevin arrived with his ladders yesterday morning to repair the damage.

Meanwhile, we have had a brisk start to the new year's trading and are already limbering up for our fifth annual Frockery eco-fashion challenge, which is due to begin on 1st February. Last year's winner Janice Stewart has agreed to be one of our judges and the Frockery Facebook Group is attracting new members in anticipation of the month-long event.

Why not join in the fun this year? Details of how to enter can be found here.
