the only part of owning the shop i have enjoyed is this forum the rest has been shit Well, I'm glad to have "met" you here Rhi and hope that things are looking up for you soon. It's a hard decision when you have a lot invested to say you are done, even if it wasn't the greatest of circumstances you began under. I enjoy your wit and hope you will stop by on occasion. Cheers to a less stressful existence.

Please stay in touch with us and let us know the good, the bad, and the ugly and vent away when needed, but don't forget to stop and smell the flowers every once in a while (but not lavender That closing door will hopefully open another one that will suit your fancy and your great wit. Best wishes, and a big hug from across the pond, and if I can ever help in any way you know how to contact me.

Rhi, we definitely feel your absence around here! I miss your tidbits of knowledge, your witty advice, and especially your slightly twisted sense of humor! I wish you all the best and I hope you find an outlet for your creativity that brings you smiles instead of tears.
