Business very Up and Down

I keep thinking the xmas rush is upon us only to be let back down to earth with a thump.

Orders over the weekend were reasonable and enough to finally get me a little more optimistic, yesterday was pretty good again, today, back to a slump. There were a fair few during the day but all fairly low value and tonight just a few little uns. It has been the evening orders that have been a bit of a let down recently. I have no reason as to why, maybe there is more competition but more likely it is just due to the general slowdown of the retail industry.

Still, dont want to appear all doom and gloom. We are up on last year by a fair percentage and given that most of this year has been given over to setting up the warehouse and improving the real world operation, there is plenty of room for improvement over the next twelve months with the website itself.

Maybe the Christmas rush will start tomorrow....... :)
