Sorry for the long ramble…

💛 A Little Appreciation Post 💛

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who has messaged, checked in, and asked after Chris over the past week. It really means so much to know how many people care.

Thank you also for your patience while I’ve been juggling family life and work — it’s been one heck of a week! 🫣

On another note, it’s a bittersweet announcement, but there will be no more postal orders. It’s been a blast, but with the closure of the Abergavenny shop and limited space in Pontypool, it’s become too difficult to manage. And if I’m honest, there always seems to be one person on every postal drop who reminds me just how mad the world has become! 😅

As of this week, my NEW Pontypool opening hours are:

🕙 Monday–Friday: 10am–2pm
🚪 Closed Saturday & Sunday

Any Saturday collections already booked in will still go ahead, and I’ll open on those days as needed.

As for Father’s Day, I’m too tired to think about it right now! If I do decide to offer anything, it will be very limited and I’ll post an update.

Thank you all for your continued support, kindness, and understanding. It never goes unnoticed.

Much love,
Rhi 🧁

I have some empty chocolate tubs (all washed out) free if anyone wants them.

Just swing by and grab what you want. I have 8 at the moment. Ideal for chicken feed, dry store, massive sandcastles 🤣
