COVID-19  UPDATE 17 NOV 2020

Due to the recent COVID cluster in South Australia, we are required by State Government to shutdown for 6 days from midnight tonight. Calls to the shop will be redirected to my mobile during trading hours and I will endeavour to answer questions and place items on hold, ready for when we can resume business.

We appreciate your support (and patience) as we navigate through these necessary steps to look after us all.

We wish you all well,                                                                                                          Peter
