Hello ,

Greetings from Spain.

I arrived last week from Bratislava, Slovakia, where we are working on a new distribution centre.
My wife an I have a home in La Cala de Mijas, and I can tell you it's nice to be home if only for a Mooch*.
* A "Mooch" I understand is a new word from the land of the free that signifies a period of 10 or 11 days :)

Last week I was telling you that losing friends can be a good thing and also a bit more about eating frogs. You can read why here.
So not only do we have a new EU distribution warehouse, but we are on the verge of launching a new website update, that hopefully will make the buying experience more smooth and enjoyable.

It's been a long time in the making, and just a bit nerve racking, we need a modern website but change sometimes is unsettling.
The first versions of the site will be for the new European websites, then later the UK websites. So hold on to your hats.

Meanwhile in Sheffield at AW HQ.. Things are moving up a gear..
Some good and bad news I'm afraid..

Lots of stock coming in.. our long suffering warehouse team working all hours, all the warehouses are bursting at the beams.
Heaps of new products, including Christmas lines.. it really is all go like a demented mad beehive.
Our new range of Cocktail Bath Bombs just went on sale and has gone a bit crazy.. that's an understatement, every second order is for them.

But Huston we have a problem.. a bit of a cocktail cock-up.
Because of that virus that disabled the NHS, and quite a few shipping companies, our packaging (which is coming from China) got stuck in Hong Kong.
So our advanced stock is almost expired.. even our bulk order won't be enough to keep up with demand for long.
Therefore.. dear readers of this newsletter, if you want a bit of the legendary Cocktail Bath Bomb stock, get it now.. I think we will be out of stock pretty soon, and.. for probably about a month.
We will keep making them.. and as soon as the packaging arrives, there will be lots of stock. I appreciate you bearing with us.

But talking about legendary stock.. there is some good news!
A long awaited Salt Lamp container is due on Monday, and we have put the stock online.. so you can order now.

The last container barely lasted a Mooch, so I'd suggest placing an order sooner rather than later.

It's holiday season.. so lots of folk are off on walking holidays and stuff. Here in Spain the roads and restaurants are choc-a-block. So it's sensible to stay at home and get some work done.
Rodrigo.. if you have been following his story, is still here in our house. Trapped heartlessly and separated from his family by the Home Office.
Next week I'll give you a full update.

If you are on holiday hope you are enjoying the sunshine.

Thank you as always for your custom and kindness.

Take care.

David

We are happy to announce our Himalayan Salt Lamps are back in stock

Each Salt Lamp comes complete with light fitting, bulb & plug. Rather than sell them by size we sell them by approximate weight. Items are marked with sizes to give a rough idea of size only, each lamp is completely unique.

Please bear in mind our artisans in Pakistan made every effort to match the weights of the salt lamps we have requested however due to the products nature they are still approximate.
