Where did July Go?

Boy, I can't believe it is now the end of the month.  Christmas in July celebrations have been going off around the country.  I particularly enjoy the great number of British customers who enjoy Christmas in July so they can have a cold Christmas celebration with a succulent warm roast.

So, what's next?  We move straight out of Christmas in July into the Melbourne Gift Fair.  For those who haven't been to a gift fair it is held over 5 days at Melbourne Exhibition Centre as well as the showgrounds.  It takes one full day to make your way through all the displays, and at the end of it your legs are crying out to sit down.  As well as looking for new stock at the show we also help our Sydney based supplier on our stand throughout the 5 days.

What I love about the show is the chance to see the exciting new products and place my final orders for the season.  What I don't like is being on my feet on the concrete surface for 5 days straight. 

I look forward to sharing photos of the products we find with you in the coming weeks.  The gift fair is on Saturday 7th August - Wednesday 11th August.
