Default My new shop

Guys,

I recently posted a thread asking for any reaction on sending me badges or stickers of your clubs and flying fields to prep up my Hobby Shop here in South Africa.
The shop is almost done, and business will be normal from Tuesday next week again.
I have a nice big brick wall which I want to dedicate to all clubs around the world.
Check out the pics and here is my postal adress: Grahams Hobbies, PO Box 3112, Somerset West, South Africa, 7129 (www.grahamshobbies.co.za)

Thanks in advance.
Neil

Not a bad example of how a web-site could be set up either. I bet it generates some sales!

The shop was built from scratch without interior decorators charging big bucks. We used imagination and a lot of s/steel to make it kind of rough, but upmarket with an aviation feel to it.
The lights from the roof are attached to a Timex Seaking Helicopter,s blades, and the hangar was painted to look old and rusted by myself. I will concider moving in there myself if the wife starts getting edgy!

Guys,
If it would help, I will send every person or club that contributes, a "Tip of Africa Badge" and place a link on my website. How's that?
