1) When will the website be finished?
We are
currently at the stage of 50% of one of all our items on the
website, and many of these also have a link to the full colour
range of that item. After we have completed the full colour
range of most items we will then put prices on the website.
Although as we have over 5,000 items/images this will be
finished as the months progress, in the meantime one can phone
(02)92671428 for prices, please quote the item number on the
website if available when you phone.

way to find the product you are looking for will be to click onto your
respective customer category button/link on the

(at the top of every page is also a link to the Main Home Page , and
then click the product list for that category. If you are not
