BEANIES FOR YOUR BONCE! I'm delighted to say that we ran our Buy one Gift one promotion again this year. We do this for "We Shall Overcome" which is a solidarity campaign helping those struggling on low income, with homelessness and other difficulties in their lives. we have been able to send 35 beanies to Greater Manchester, which can be distributed to those who need them. The work carried out by many volunteers working from The Station Hotel in Ashton Under Lyne genuinel

aaah Bugger, Abba Tuesdsay
Monday News on the 1st day of christmas countdown my nevski gave to me..... a challenge. We said If we took £300 on a monday (!) we would insist that the shop stereo would only pump out the output of swedish palindromatic beat combo the Abba. Now this was stupid bravado because: a) we dont normally open on mondays, so didnt expect to have many customers b) no one set the rules for what contributed towards the total taken. So close of play on Monday and we had taken about £230

November 22nd - Christmas lights switch on day in Tivvy!
its that magical day of the year that you can guarantee rain,/gales/extreme cold/the ghost of Trevor Maunder to visit upon you. For that reason i got up late, and opened the shop half an hour later than usual on a saturday. HOWEVER I am planning on being open until 6PM tonight, when there will be a countdown from 10, leading to someone throwing a big fake switch to pretend to turn the christmas lights on (whilst somewhere else out of site, someone in a HI VIZ coat will take

Exciting New Badges in Stock Check Out Our Video Showcase
the title line was generated by AI. i also asked AI to write some cool sales blurb about why you should want to own a badge from my shop, but it cam out with some outrageously stupid claims about "unique designs", "Durable Designs", Versatile Sizes" and "Themes for everyone" so i deleted that and wrote this instead: BADGES - ENAMEL ONES, and 25MM Pin Badge Sets - ideal stocking fillers for the cool people you like. these arent listed on the website, so drop us a message if
