“Day 567 in the big brother house” or what feels like it is!!
Unfortunately still snowed in with no sign of the road being cleared so unfortunately not made it back to work. Sorry for any inconvenience 😫

I would like to thank everyone for the kind comments after opening the shop on Tuesday. I’m overwhelmed by the ‘welcome to the street’ cards and gifts from neighbouring shops and residents.
A massive thank you to the following tradesmen who went above and beyond..
R W Tait Carpentry & Joinery
Dave “the painter” Jessiman
J&SAllan
Gary Harvey Electricals
My amazing friends who I wouldn’t know where I’d be without.. thank you for your ears and words of encouragement 🥰
And none of this would have been possible if it wasn’t for ‘him indoors’ Neil Chalmers and help and support from family. After 31 years of living in Stromness.. I love it even more.
Thank you all 😊

Hello. Just a quick message to say that I am closed to follow the guidelines from our Scottish government until there is more clarity about our industry.
However if you need something essential repaired I.E leaking roof or broken window/ door I will be available. I’ll also be providing a financial reduction due to the financial pressures that many house holds will be experiencing at this moment.
Stay safe.
