For starters when you get there you have to walk up a flight of very utilitarian stairs before you see anything to write home about but once you go into their enormous hall of mountains of fabrics in edible colours, I warn you, you'll be like a little kid in Santas Grotto. It is just sooo incredibly huge, there are fabrics and yarns and notions I had never seen before. The colours were like something out of an old masters painting. It took all my effort to tear myself away. I thought places like this only existed in America....TG we have this........a real emporium!

However the main peeve I have with this shop is that its on the first floor with no lift to get upstairs, meaning that any Mum's with push chairs can't shop here unless they are willing with an able bodied friend to carry the push chair up a lot of steps!

Stocks a good range of papers and magazines and comics for the little ones, as well as the usual sweeties, crisps, drinks and basics like milk. Prices are average but service is provided with a smile. The shop is very useful for local residents as it sports a very helpful notice section on the right flank of the building notice of anything from cars and bikes to furniture, rental property and jobs. Good for people coming to do a summer season and looking for a room in a shared house without the expense of picking up a local paper from inside!
