Is it just me, or is this year going in a blink? Hard to believe we are almost at the end of April already. The warmer days are very welcome though. The canal is full of life, with ducklings racing around after their parents and the light catching the water, and the bluebells are putting on a good show in the woods.

With May around the corner, it is a good time to think about longer days out and making sure your kit is up to the job. We currently have an offer on Sealskinz bamboo socks while stocks last, a small upgrade that can make a big difference to how your feet feel after a few miles. If you are planning your first proper walk of the year or getting ready for bigger days out later in the season, pop in for some advice.

We are still running our special offers in store:

• 2 pairs of Sealskinz bamboo socks for £35
• A free care kit with every purchase of Lowa boots

Our opening times on May Bank Holiday Monday is 10:00 – 4:00 ….we look forward to seeing you!
