Advantages: Quality, Originality, Good Service and the Personal Touch Disadvantages: Arrangement of site could be improved.Some items a little pricey.
Reviews which mention Christmas preparations and are submitted in November are not universally popular I know! However with a family and friend network as scattered as mine, I have no option but to begin my shopping in October because Christmas delivery and collection visits start at the beginning of November no matter how much I protest and rail against it each year.
