train set for sale

A wee while ago we came across a big ole model train set in an op shop. Someone's hobby no longer loved. So after a little discussion (ahem arguing) between Nick and I, Nick won the battle and the train set has joined us in the shop. Sadly it takes up too much room to make it a permanent item, so I am currently photographing all the bits and pieces to upload and sell online. So if you or someone you know has a big old shed with plenty of space, free time and is a train boffin, send them our way. One of my fave models is this Kentucky Fried Chicken stand. (Not KFC)...

goes on...

unfortunately the bear dish above was left on the roof of our car and then run over by a tram...so sadly he is no longer, but on a brighter note our GARAGE SALE is still on. We have decided to keep bringing in items and running the shop as a bit of a garage sale for the next few weeks. So lots of cheap random old stuff that you normally wouldn't find at our shop. However we will not open this Labour Day weekend... as our usual back-up filler-in-er-a is away.

Arthur's GARAGE SALE

We are sorting through boxes and shelves from behind the scenes at Arthur's Circus (and Arthur is selling some of his toys - he's after some new lego)....and are having our first big GARAGE SALE. It's on this Sunday 28th February from 9am - 4pm. So come to North Melbourne and grab a bargain and then head to the Lithuania club on Errol Street, for the North Melbourne Market.

grand sale...grand sale

the sale is on and I'm currently uploading and putting items on sale in ye olde bigcartel shop too.

shop half sorted

With Arthur starting school this week, life has begun it's unescapable (is that a word?) routine... To be honest I'm not great with routine so whilst we're getting used to the school thing, tomorrow the shop will be shutting at 3pm. Saturday will be 10am - 4pm.
I am feeling better after spending the day re-arranging and cleaning and looking forward to bringing some new ideas / things into Arthur's Circus. Our sale will start next Thursday and go for the rest of February. Items will be priced at between 10-40% off. Time to make some room for new stock.

we're back

Arthur has started school so the shop is back open tomorrow... we'll be doing a little rearranging over the next few days (so that the shop isn't as messy looking as my desk) and then we will be having our first ever sale... We'll also be having a wee sale online too for those far away. Keep looking as it will be a discount code thingy me thinks

have map will travel

It's still holiday time at Arthur's Circus, no grand travelling to far away destinations but the good ole taking each day as it comes, days at the beach, hanging out with family and friends. Arthur starts school this year, so we have decided to keep the shop closed until school starts in Feb. Also North Melbourne is always a bit of a ghost town come summertime... but we have plans to change the shop around a bit and have our first big sale when we open again. The online shop is always open and we mail out once a week. It's going to be 41 degrees today so we're off to see the Fantastic Mr Fox at the cinema and eating ice cream. Hope your holidays are fun.
