A LITTLE HISTORY
WELCOME TO MY SHOP IN THE 50s MY GRANDAD STARTED SELLING CHINA AND POTTERY AROUND YORKSHIRE.
WITH JUST TWO SUITCASES OFF HE WENT WALKING DOWN BAILDON MOOR TO THE TRAIN STATION AND OFF TO KNARESBOROUGH & RIPON.
AFTER SOME TIME AND BUILDING UP TO FOUR SUITCASES PICKING TWO UP CARRYING THEM A HUNDRED FEET THEN GOING BACK AND PICKING
THE OTHER TWO UP HE FINALLY BOUGHT A FORD POP.
IN THE 60S MY FATHER TOOK OVER FROM HIM AND BUILT THE BUSINESS UP AND HANDED IT OVER TO MY BROTHERS
IN 2002 WHO RAN IT TILL 2012 WHEN THEY FINALLY CLOSED SHOP.
IN 1985 I BORROWED £1000 AND GOT ON TO THE PRINCE'S TRUST. FROM THEN I DID MARKETS AROUND NORTH YORKSHIRE & SCOTLAND.
IN 2005 I NOTICED A DOWNTURN IN MARKETS AND SHOPS AND STARTED PUTTING BITS ON EBAY.
IN 2014 WITH RUNNING COSTS GETTING HIGH I FINALLY FINISHED MY LAST MARKET IN SKIPTON.
2022 WITH THE COST OF PACKAGING AND MATERIALS NEARLY DOUBLING AND WAGE INCREASES IT HAS BECOME TOO EXPENSIVE TO HAVE MUGS
MADE FOR ME SO I HAVE FINALLY BOUGHT A KILN.
I AM NOW DECORATING & FIRING STOCK FOR THE SHOP.
