After making the shop fit for purpose, comes the shop fittings. Lets just say a lot of unpacking and assembling has gone on. We've both passed our IKEA Assembly Proficiency Level 4, so we found these relatively straight forward. The Till Counter arrived, followed on successive days by shelving and our signage created and installed by Graphic Edge. The shop has limited space for storage, so we've bought IKEA storage units. Always impressed by the ingenious nature of flat pack assembly. These ones required no bolts or locking devices and were simply pressed together in a matter of minutes

'The Monolith' is no more. After the agony entailed in my making it fast became redundant once we re-thought our floor layout. All the messy meters, switches and wires are now hidden behind a 7ft high hinged door that we made, covered in a piece of stunning Scion fabric that we picked up in Matlock Bath for less than a third the RRP. Result.
By the end of next week we'll be open for business. We're already a bit nervous about how the things we've made will all go down in Sheringham, but lets just wait and see.
