Well another year nearly over...

Its coming to that time of year when its a case of 'Oh that's another year gone' with the passing year being a distant memory as soon as 1st January hits and then the realisation that January is a heck of a long month until you get paid!

Well to cheer you up and to make January that little bit bearable, we still have an incredibly good sale going on here! With up to 70% off on many items.

Yeah you maybe broke but at least you'll have some nice things to show for it! 

Further reductions...

...Just to get you more excited than you probably are already, we've added a few items to our 50% off sale.

Its another glorious here day here in Padstow, sun is shining with not a queue insight for anything - unlike some of the citys around here! 

This is what winter is all about...

I had a wonder around the harbour earlier today to see if it is as deadly quiet as it feels.  

Even though its so bitterly cold outside you can not beat it when its like this.  Cold and everything so still with the sun shining-what a perfect day.  I think this poem sums it right up: 

The Winter Sun

Hangs low in the sky

The navy blue sea

Sparkles in the sunlight

The trees are silhouetted

Shafts of lights shining through

Their barren branches

Frosty nights leave icing

Covered lawns and cobwebs

The winter sun

Pale and watery

Hardly warming the hard earth

But welcome like an old friend,

On this cold winter day.

And yes it is as deadly quiet as it seems but perfect for Christmas shopping don't you think?

A get together with Reef...

Last Friday the managers at Gul all got together to go and see Reef play in Truro.

Reef was the first concert I ever went to 12 years ago and I was interested to see how they  had aged now.

Well I can tell you now that they haven't lost it one bit!  They were brilliant!

We even had the opportunity to meet the band and this is when I became quite star struck as in my head all I could think about was that Reef were there right in front of me!  At one point I couldn't even look at them - that's how star struck I was!

I somehow got over being this silly and managed to get a photo taken with the main man himself, Gary Stringer and do you know what, they were all so nice and didn't seem all that put out when all I could do was mumble!

Well I supposed they're used to meeting people like me - mumbling, star struck idiots!

If you ever get a chance to see this band and you can remember all the classics then go and see them as I guarantee you will reliving your youth and jumping round with the best of them!

Good times!
