I said "nay, I'm done." I never went back. Although I will say they had a bit more character when they had their small shop near M10.

Wish him well in his retirement.

These gem shops are few and far between - Magnum in Stratford is one, Taihape Gun Shop another (sadly closing).
We need to support them against the big franchises.

Is the Taihape gun shop closing?

Yep, it's like waking up and our favorite pub the NewTaihape had burnt down.
I can't believe it hasn't sold as combined with the cafe it's an unreal business.
