The french theme wasn't broad enough really and madam had the brainwave to use the Dramatic thing.....so at not inconsiderable cost we've trademarked it in four categories.

Soon as the new website is finished we have to load and source a lot more product while also working on her latest brainwave Dramatic Jewels....off to Amsterdam in a couple of weeks allegedly to meet a big supplier with a view to getting UK distribution for their products.....all high end costume jewellery, not diamonds sadly ...then its another website....

not too bad TBH....£500 for the rework on the existing Interiors one and porting it to the new domain, plus around £1000 for the new Jewels one. I consider that mighty cheap, but then we've used an external function called Shopify for the selling bit. Works well til things get big enough to warrant an integrated setup.

How about getting some of your dogs to do some SAS type stuff in the Becons and then you could rename the sit Dramatic Kennels, and bring the pooches on a forced march

You'd laugh Liam but the kennel site is doing really well, lots of bookings coming in, especially older or smaller dogs, or ones with medical issues that need a bit of TLC.....Dorne doesn't mind at all so fair play to her....people say they can't find anything like it so it clearly fills a niche. Shame we decided not to take more than four dogs at a time really - and the whole site cost £20 including hosting

Dog thing was just a 'get some cash flow' thing though, not a long term bet. But good money. Last year had a very nice lady from London with two spoilt dogs paid me over £700 to collect and drop them for a 10 day visit.
