      This is not a given yet because Paula needs to do the sums, but we have effectively run out of space…..

      The Alexander Leathers inventory combined with the Wesco Boot stock has us at breaking point in our existing office space.  There is no way I want to move again, as we invested a load in fixed costs (physical and digital security, kitchen etc) when we moved in.

      Those of you who have been here, will know that I could install a mezzanine for storage, but for the last few months Paula and I have been saying "wouldn't it be great if next door became available".  Well, it looks like it will become free in the next few months.

      I have not been in there yet, but I guess it is about 50-60% the size of what we have at the moment.

      Vague plans are to knock through from our office area, and in the new area have:

      A proper photo studio area
      A "showroomy" area
      A toilet
      A changing room
      A storage area for the boots and jackets

          Wow. Great problem to have G. Sounds like perfect timing with next store becoming available.

              Build walls around the toilet and make a guest bathroom for the show room 🙂

              I'm shocked you guys need space again, but then again, I'm not shocked. Good work IHUK!

                      OK sold.  We will have one door onto shower (though P now wants to put a jean soaking bath in it too) room, and then a door off that into the loo….
