The Identity Store Leather Sale on Sunday 6th November was a great success, leather people met each other and were able to pick up great bargains.  

This set us thinking! Watch out!

Is there anyone in the whole of the UK who would like to help us organise a Grand Leather Sale in their area? We'd make it financially worthwhile and it is a great day.  If you are interested call Peter on 0797 0698115.

There would be as much at the Sale as we can physically take and we would make it as interesting as we can with many bargains...
