Freddy Steady Go

We are thoroughly enjoying our walks with our 5 month old Lakeland Terrier puppy Freddy Rumbles Turner.  Apart from the benefits of river walks twice a day, we have met so many lovely dog owners.

Walking in all weathers is even enjoyable. Hooray for Hunter Wellie Boots, Hunter Boot Jack, Hunter Boot Bag and Hunter Wellie Socks!

Sugar-Sugar! Brighton Based Sugarhill Boutique New In!

Inspired by a brother & sister team's love of travel, Sugarhill Boutique was founded in 2005.

Pawel and Aleksandra Przedpelska (pictured below) have developed a quirky style that references the natural world.  They particularly love Asia and this Season's beautiful bird and elephant prints reflect their love of Balinese Culture.

SINGING IN THE RAIN?

What a miserable day!  Until I watched a clip of Gene Kelly Singing & Dancing in The Rain.

"Do-be-do-do - Do-do-do-be-do-do-do.."



When I get my new Hunter Bubble Umbrella, put on my Cornflower Blue Hunter Wellies and my new 
North Face Rain Coat and dance in puddles - Weather Woman Carole - can say whatever she likes!
(Lynda T.)
I'm singing in the rain, just singing in the rain

What a glorious feelin', I'm happy again
I'm laughing at clouds, so dark up above
The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love.
Let the stormy clouds chase everyone from the place
Come on with the rain, I've a smile on my face
I walk down the lane, with a happy refrain
Just singin' , singin' in the rain!

ARE YOU READY FOR LETS ROCK THE MOOR?


Let’s Rock The Moor! will be returning for its 5th year this Saturday May 18th, with an action packed day of live music at this Boutique, Family Friendly, 80s Festival.

Set in our picturesque village of Cookham in Berkshire, this event has plenty to do for everyone! This year sees a new 2nd stage – The Paddock Stage – introducing local bands, children’s entertainers from BBC/ITV, a much bigger Circus, children’s rides (including Bumper Boats and Dodgems), a new 80s themed children’s play area, competitions and the usual fantastic selection of World Food caterers and multiple bars.
Up to now The Festival has been blessed with good weather.  Hopefully the Sun will shine but just in case we are offering a 10% discount on our Hunter Festival Wellies


Lets Rock The Moor is unique in that all of its profits are given by Cookham organisers Nick Billinghurst and Mike Clarke to worthy local charities such as The Link Foundation and The Wooden Spoon Charity.  It is now the second biggest 80s festival in the country. A truly great family day.  See you there!

Om Shanti - New Yoga/Pilates Clothing from Asquith London

We are pleased to announce that we have just taken on a new Yoga/Pilates Brand at Turners Marlow.  Asquith London is a stylish and ethically sourced British Yoga/Pilates Clothing Brand.  Designed by Alice Asquith for the healthy active woman who cares about the environment.  The fabrics are exquisitely soft, and the styles are designed to be layered for a variety of stylish different looks.

Alice uses the softest organic jersey fabrics that will not shrink, fade, bobble or stretch:

  • Organic Cotton farmed without pesticides or chemicals,  
  • Bamboo - naturally antibacterial and exquisitely soft 
  • Tencel extracted from recycled wood pulp and perfect for sensitive skin.

Plus the clothing is ethically manufactured in two small factories in India and Portugal where the employees received good pay in comfortable and safe working conditions.
One of my favourite pieces is the Yoga Scarf pictured above.  This also doubles as a Meditation pashmina and Savasana Blanket. I love it!

Namaste.
