Jim CarneyShrewsbury
Loved shopping here recently. The ladies that served me and my husband were so helpful and friendly. No hard sell just good old excellent customer service. They were out of stock of one item he wanted so they took the trouble of sourcing it and posting to us. Needless to say we will be back. Thank you!
