Day light saving started 2 weeks ago and now it’s a good time to do a twice yearly maintenance check on your windows.
Go around and open and close all your windows. Open them fully to the stops and make sure they move freely and seal completely at the top and bottom. If they are stiff, a spray with any spray lube (except the red CRC) on all the pivot joints will help.

Note- if your windows are very stiff don’t force them or you could break them.

Any questions, send us a message!

Have a great day!

By 8.30 am there were only 3 stall holders, we had a discussion re the very strong winds and decided that for health and safety reasons it would be better not to have the market as there could be problems with gazebos lifting and goods being blown off the tables. By 9 am there were another 2 stall holders arrive and after that no more. We feel that we made the right decision under the circumstances.
The next market will be on the 18th October.
