There is defiantly the sound of badly sung Christmas songs in the air, or is it the sound of parcels being ripped open with such speed as a 4 year old on Christmas morning. Boxes Boxes and more boxes, the tables in the class room are stacked up, even the sofa area in the store has no where to sit down. They are arriving quicker than we can open them and that's saying something.
All the oohhhs and mmmm, that's pretty, keep one for me, did we get enough for a class, where did you find these......
Yes its very much like Christmas........IN AUGUST!
Our stock levels in the store are at their highest in September, with seasonal demos and classes kicking off right at the start of the month and there is something going on nearly every weekend. We all have to work our pixi stock off at this time of the year and right until November before it clams down again. All that goodies have to be unpacked, priced and put on the shelf's. OH NO THERE IS NO ROOM LEFT AT THE
So I am off to work again to help Kate clear the floor before the UPS man calls again at 3pm.
Mark goes on holiday at the end of the week, this will not effect dispatches but I doubt anyone will answer emails while he is enjoying family time. He is super organised and is ready for the new release, JINGLE BELLS & TINKLE BELLS next weekend, all he is waiting for is rubber.
Happy Birthday Katie, "Miss Funkykits" is now 20! Have a great day dolly.xoxo
She is living in Glasgow and waiting for her big sister to fly home tomorrow from another luved up visit to USA and Canada. I might need them both home next week to cut up rubber and pack orders while Mark is on holiday. So a couple of embarrasing photos of the birthday girl just because I am a wicked mother.

The big tease starts on TOMORROW, until them HIGH HO, HIGH HO, ITS OFF TO WORK I GO......
