We're just back from our last of three short holidays in the UK over the summer. This time we have spent a week in at Wyvis Lodge in Inverness, a once-glorious but now slightly faded Victorian stalking lodge set in splendid isolation at the head of Loch Glass, a good ten miles (of bumpy driving) from the nearest pub or shop. It's been fabulous, no TV or telephones, but plenty of fantastic birds (ospreys, divers, ptarmigan etc) and lots of boozing.
Anyhow, I'm now back at my desk in earnest, with our busiest season ahead of us. We have nearly all this year's advent calendars loaded up (and yes, amazingly some people are already buying them) and we will have six or seven new ranges of cards coming into stock over the next few weeks, including a useful boost to our humour selection.
About Me
- www.orchardcards.co.uk
- I'm 39, happily married and mother of Kate (5 years old) and Charlie (3 years). I trained and worked in finance for 16 years, but set up orchardcards.co.uk in April 2006 because I couldn't easily buy tasteful and unsentimental cards in my local town - I used to visit John Lewis (an hour away) every few months and stock up on about 20 at a time, and I figured there must be others out there like me who would like to buy nice cards by mail order. The other members of the Orchardcards.co.uk team are my husband Richard and colleague Becky Pass
