STICK

We're working from home most of the time now and only open the shop on THURSDAYS AND FRIDAYS from 10.30am - 3.00pm until the 1st November, after which time the shop will be closed... Jacky came into the business - well, I dragged her in really - a few years later and she's a great help making a lot of the sticks - she won't carve or make horn sticks, but does make a lot of the walking sticks, hiking sticks and thumbsticks. She also packs most of the orders and does my book keeping too! Jacky was a real help at shows because she organised me when we packed the car and trailer and when we set up the stall and put all the sticks and DIY items out for customers to see. We're a real team now - full partners in 'The Stick Man' business. I deal with the website now and normally take the phone orders too. I concentrate on the carved sticks - when the phone stops ringing - and do most of the horn sticks, though I have a couple of local helpers who make some of them if I'm too busy... Keith..
