“…. Stuffed birds; a zebra head; gun slings, and ammunition boxes; stirrup cases (apparently Victorian hunting ladies, would change horses at lunch time; their dedicated grooms, who take out the concealed stirrup and ride the tire horse home astride); horse hair fly whisks; unreliable travelling alarm clocks with a tick louder than their alarm; stuffed fish and walking sticks made by Mr. Joy who also mends bikes, and suffers from bad eyesight, and whittles away the winter hours over his walking sticks. Denbyware, earthenware…. The place is stuffed with real gift ideas for me to give principally to me”.- Nick May, Bath
