Title: Protean Design ( PropShop )
Post by: Martin (Admin) on August 16, 2019, 04:42:08 pm

From Facebook...

Protean Design

Not a moment too soon... For many months I've been looking for larger premises to cope with demand and bring in machinery which has been in storage. Finally, Protean has moved into a proper business unit and I got my house back!
So, to all friends & customers past, present and future, these are your new contact details for Protean Design & Prop Shop from Aug 2019:

UNIT 19 FOSSEWAY BUSINESS PARK
MORETON-IN-MARSH
GLOS.
GL56 9NQ

TEL. 01608 652215


I can still be reached by the old phone no. / address, so fear not, but this will be my new 'man cave' in daylight hours. Where I go at night is a secret. The new workshop will also have a retail counter, so visitors are welcome. (Please ring ahead to ensure someone will be on hand to help). We are right next to Moreton-in-Marsh Station, ideal if you fancy a day out by train, with exploration of Moreton, Batsford Arboretum etc for those not of a model boat persuasion.
Traffic in Moreton at certain times is a shocker, so I recommend to avoid coming by car on Tuesday (market day) or early to mid afternoon. See you there!

Looks like you'll need to fire up the Winnebago again then, Andy. Life can be cruel, can't it?  8)

Simon just replied yes


"Hi Andy, still working, still sending. Some of my suppliers not around, so having to improvise at times, but ok so far."

Well I'm not sure about texting him, I don't want to pester him, as long as I know they are open and posting orders that's good enough for me. Still pacing up and down though lol :) thanks for finding out for me though mate :), and only one more post and no more questions yahooooooooooooooooo :), Steve.

Honestly he won't mind during business hours. He replied within 5 mins followed by Dan that I messages on Facebook  :-))


Some might say why not ring? To me a text does not interfere with what he might be on with and he can reply at leisure when he has a breather

Just look at the forum section TUGS LiFEBOATS etc etc and start a new topic in whatever it fits. Don't worry if you get it wrong as the management will fix it  {-)
