2009-11-17T19:27:00.006Z

Ok, ok, so it's over a year since we posted! Terrible, I know. I was reminded of this blog recently when we had a design update on the website, hence here I am posting again :)

So...NEWS

- We're having a massive alternative footwear sale on ebay - View all items in the sale

We will be listing new items every week hopefully up until Christmas.

- Great gifts now available in the Rockinaprons (Rock In Aprons!) range. Definitely a winner for an alternative Christmas gift this year!

- and finally, as mentioned we have had a slight re-design on the website. That purple wasn't doing it for us any more.

So, that's all folks. Thanks for reading and we promise not to leave it so long next time!
