Holiday dates for Annstweed

Posted by Daniel Paulo on

We usually are away on holiday in late June - early July but unexpected events caused that to not happen.  Instead we'll be going in September from the 2nd to 24th, so if you are planning to order any items from us please do so as soon as possible.  We'll keep the store open throughout the time we're away, but orders received during that period will only be fulfilled after we return.
