Alan the locksmith is a STAR: he changed my locks about two months ago and made me feel secure in my home after a couple of unpleasant experiences with builders and tradesmen - then, today, when I thought I'd had my keys pinched after leaving them in the door, he said he'd be round within the hour, even though it was a Saturday evening. He really is wonderful, kind and re-assuring and his prices are very reasonable too.

Colin the Handyman is just such a nice chap too - pleasant to have around, worked quietly and efficiently repairing my fence, putting up some Ladderax shelving, curtain rails and other bits and bobs. And again, reasonably priced. I'm sure I will use him again!

Having had some very unpleasant experiences with builders recently - no fun at all when you're a woman living alone - Alan and Colin restored my faith. Decent, honest people who are good at what they do as well.

Their number's are:

Alan - 07870 199771

Colin - 07754 691541

  There was a Saturday afternoon crowd of enthusiasts, and at other times the owner might have been off acquiring stock. He also repaired air guns, which he also sold. He stocked edged weapons, uniforms, including antique uniforms, air guns and ammo and starting pistols and shot. Some medals and other militaria. Quite a lot of ex service chit chat on a Saturday. I had an amateur interest, didn't deal a lot, in English pattern swords and other mainly 19th century militaria. And made some good purchases there. I'm afraid WWII and later events was the major focus of most of the regulars.

  Did anyone actually venture in to that place? I recall it always being closed/very uninviting!
