Well as luck would have it I met that lady Jo, just as she was tetering at the entrace to your sho. She said that she had no problem spending £6 on the dishes, BUT she thought £30 for three standard blocks of Oasis was a bit steep.

We are also selling sundries from our shop. The previous owner refused to sell anything other than Oasis and the odd square round or one-block tray, but my biz partner Pauline and I are of the same mind - they will just get it elsewhere, or from t'internet. So now it;s our shop we are selling pot tape, oasis rings, ribbon, wires, stem tape, etc etc and it's a nice wee sideline. Long live the have-a-go amateur! They have no idea how much they want or need, so tend to buy much more... although I do try and dissuade them if they try to buy shedloads (honest.... ahem...)

It was me that nicked em fly oh you meant you sold them Thought for a mo they were like my weaths for the birds that went "flying" out of the door. (this is so sad, I have amused myself so much with the thought of that I am laughing out loud, I've woken the dog up)
