It is always nice to find a shop that offers service that we would, and it does not happen every day.

It is with that in mind, I would like to tell you about my dealings with Kate, at SillyJokes.  It was not a silly joke I was ordering from her, but Fancy Dress for my Daughter Lucy.

Lucy is proacticing for her school show, that they put on every Christmas at her School in Osmaston. The school put a huge amount of effort into it, and the children benefit enormously.

As usual we started planning her outfit too late, but found a great villagers outfit, with next day delivery, At SillyJokes.  It is a lovely outfit, but when it did not arrived yesterday as planned, we started to panic.  Kate came straight back to our query, with a refund on the delivery, and a tracking number, saying it would be delivered today.

It was not her fault.  The country is covered in snow.  I needed reassurance that the garment was on its way to me, not still in the warehouse, as is always possible.   So if you are looking for some Fancy Dress for the office party, then consider her site

I had a bit of fun the other day testing one of our washable suits.  I got a friend to wear it, and then we went Quad biking in the mud.  The idea was to get a short video and put it on Youtube to illustrate just how washable these suits are.

As you can see from these initial images, this was a light summer suit, and it got very dirty!  I do not have a picture of it cleaned…. but it came up beautifully.   I thought it better to get these images up, rather than wait for the full story.  My video expert is away until October, so it will be a while.

The kind people at Wild Park Leisure Quad Biking were very helpful, and took these pictures for us.  It is a fantastic morning out, if you live in the area.  Josh and Jake have both had the misfortune of taking me out, and both are very good teachers, and will give you great fun, whatever your level.

Have a look at our  range of washable suits,  possibly the biggest selection in the country.    Washable suits have come on a long way since the early days, and there are some very effective  fabrics about.  Please drop into our site, and call us if you have any doubts.  One of us will I am sure be able to help you.
