That’s us officially retired now. Keys handed over to Bob yesterday. Our ice cream and slush is being taken over by Bob at the Hungry Spot in the Spring. Today is the start of a new chapter in our lives. We’d like to thank all of our staff, customers & friends that we’ve had over the many years. We’ve met lots of lovely people. The cards, flowers & lovely messages over the last week have been amazing. I thought I’d put a photo on of a beautiful message one of our children put in a card to us. All 3 of them worked in the shop as teenagers. Our family have fully supported us in the decision to retire so we can spend much more time with them. I think the message says it all. Xx
