Some of you may remember the massive fire next to SHED, well after months of wrangling with lawyers we've finally got a decision from regarding compensation
We have accepted an offer of £124,069 for loss of business, damage to reputation and limitations to accessibility for our property (which continue to affect our trade)
The compensation clears tomorrow so we're taking a well earned break in The Dominican Republic. Were aiming to re-open sometime mid August.
Thankyou for all your support over this difficult time. Happy Easter and Warmest Regards from Pete and Lydia
Xx
