We had no idea how things would progress. We had a couple of months of hiring then we hit on a problem: we needed a shop. Our main problem was customers were put off by a home company. So one afternoon during a cheeky visit to the pub we spied in the corner something odd. There was a man sat in the corner with parrot on his shoulder and a dog at his feet. We started to chat and found out he had our answer!! He had a shop for us! Since then the rest has been history.

We got an artist to paint us a beautiful motif on our side.

Everything has been going fantastically well and amazingly we had our costumes delivered on a Thursday afternoon and we had the shop open by 1 o’clock Friday!! Our Grand Opening was on the 12th of August and was an amazing success! Our ribbon was cut by the Mayor of Dover and we had a piper to sound us in.

We are very excited about what lies ahead and can’t wait to see you there!
