About the Business
The co-owners of the shop. They're husband and wife and have been working side by side since 1980. Ruth works in the shop and Martin does all the "behind the scenes" work, such as the accounts and designing the shop's computer software. In their spare time they love visiting theme parks to ride big roller-coasters, and travelling to exotic destinations like Singapore and Mauritius.
Our longest serving member of staff, Colin has worked with us since 1993 and takes care of all the repairs we do on the premises. In 2012 Colin received a new hip after suffering constant pain for 16 years after a motorbike accident. Happily, he is now much better and has started going out on his trike (3-wheeled motorbike) again. For his 10-year long service gift Colin asked for a full-sized replica medieval sword! The 20-year gift was more practical, this time he had a Kenwood Chef food mixer as he's now into baking, we all look forward to the yummy bread, cakes and biscuits he brings in for us to try.
