How much is this one in the pic pls
Oooh! It’s chilly this morning! Minus -7 when I got in the van first thing!
The first of our Christmas Trees arrived this week with more coming mid week!
Plenty of wreaths to choose from, more being made up daily.
Poinsettias and indoor plants in abundance at Shadwell.
It would be lovely to see you this weekend.
Stay warm
Alan
