Secrets of September
Secrets of September
September, which comes from the old Roman word “Septem” meaning seven. Seven? Surely it should be nine right?! Well in the old roman calendar September was the seventh month, not ninth, hence the name!
This month marks a change in the weather (or it is supposed to, I don’t know about everyone else but the baking hot days earlier this week are more akin to July than September, my collies were not happy with all the heat!), Autumn supposedly is rolling in, a slight chill in the air and the nights drawing in. The children go back to school, the little year 7’s in slightly too big uniforms and the shops big back to school campaign calms down and their attentions turn to ………………. Sssssshhhhhhh dare I say it …….. *Christmas*
I’ve put it out there but I won’t go on about it, promise, but I would like to give you a quick heads up about my special occasion’s offerings. For small businesses we have to get organised early to ensure sufficient time to sort everything out hence this blog which includes a word which should really be banned until December!! Don’t worry, I won’t be playing any Christmas songs and I will refer to the event as a “special occasion” from here on in!
This year I will be offering the following special occasion gifts bags– available to purchase for yourself or as a present for a loved one. Make your loved ones life easier tag them in this blog or leave little clues around the house to head them in the direction of my website, I’m sure they will get the hint!!!

Choose your preference from my store and I’ll create a gift bag filled with special gifts handpicked especially for you and/or your dog.
