Winter tapas on the north Kent coast

It must have been the same winter blues that blew us this way before, though I can’t believe it’s been six years. I’d read that they moved and with a January Sunday in need of brightening, we headed to Whitstable and the string of nearby towns that merge along the north Kent coast for a fantastic lunch.

New orders for Fermob

For the past year, those of us lucky enough to have some outdoor space have been spending more time in their gardens.

This, coupled with the extra red tape of Brexit and the health and safety limitations due to COVID-19 limiting production in some manufacturers, means that we are experiencing longer lead times than normal on some items.

Fermob have informed us that lead times on their garden furniture are up to nine weeks in some cases.

Please see here for a little more information on this.

Coming soon…

We’re hoping to join a local delivery service soon, covering Tunbridge Wells and the surrounding area.

We’ll let you know as soon as we can.

Lockdown

So as we were in Tier 4 from 19th December (non-essential retail shut), as of 5th January we’re now in lockdown (non-essential retail shut). There’s a bit of a theme going on here… anyway:

Click-and-collect

We’re open for click-and-collect. So you can either order on line here on our website or contact us and we can have your order ready for collection.

As it’s January and too cold and quiet, I’m not going to be in the shop everyday; I’d rather be getting my hour of local exercise (explore-from-the-door, not cycle miles away…) looking at skies and trees.

Let us know when you’d like to collect and we’ll arrange to say a safely distanced “Hi!” and place your goods for collection in a bag on the doorstep for you to pickup.

Gift vouchers

Alternatively, you could always get one of our gift vouchers as a present – that way you don’t have to worry about what to choose.

The gift voucher is emailed directly to the recipient with a code that can be used on-line or in store (when we re-open), so you can even do it last minute (we won’t tell!).
