FabSwingers.com forum: Hastings & Son: fill my shop

By (user no longer on site) OP

Inspired by another thread (ta, Nero) I've got a lovely new corner useful DIY/Hardware type shop. One of those old fashioned ones around the corner. Where you can rummage for an hour happily and come out with a few jolly useful things.

What shall I sell in my shop?

Certainly - what kind? Pillar, taper, floating, votive - all of the above? (I do love taper candles in rainbow colours hanging in pairs)

In addition to laser-assisted phallas measuring tools.

It has ramp access through an extra wide door and plenty of turning space. Nero says Hastings has no corners so I am going to have to build it in Yorkshire. God's own country has proper corners.
