Our Shop celebrates his invention every day with fantastic fresh baguettes and sandwiches from Liz’s Bakery in St. Ives. 🥪🥖

Did you know you can still renew your vehicle tax at the Post Office? The DVLA has extended its deal with the Post Office but the renewal letter may not mention the option to renew at the PO. If you are nervous about making online payments or just fancy a chat with Giorgia or David (and why not?) head down to Our Shop during PO opening hours when your vehicle tax is due. You know it makes sense!
