But if you purchase is store they won't refund and will only exchange or credit note and this is only stated on a tiny frame not next to the till or in your eye-line. We haven't refund in 24 year they said like it was something to be proud of. The guy serving was arrogant as he said I could refund but choose not to.

Their range of gifts is excellent, candles, photo frames, lovely toiletries, nik naks for the home, etc. They also sell a few clothing accessories, ie. scarfs, pashminas, bags, etc. and some jewellery which is reasonably priced. They always have beautiful christmas decorations too (worth a visit in January when they are all half price!). Their prices aren't cheap but they're not too over the top either. Worth a visit.

I live in the USA and wanted to order an arrangement of 100 roses for someone stricken with Covid…read more I looked at many of the florists listed in the UK online but most of these were florist hubs with colorful websites but no phone numbers. They will take your money online and then email your order to one of their unidentified subsidiaries. I was not going to spend hundreds of dollars on flowers without talking to a human. Frustrated, I called a friend in England and asked for his suggestion. He highly recommended I call Mandi at Forever Flowers. The shop was closed and she was driving home, but she stopped and had a very pleasant conversation with me. She then drove back to the shop, opened it, called me and took my order. She made excellent suggestions I hadn't though of. She designed and delivered an absolutely beautiful arrangement to the badly suffering Covid victim, who was in quarantine. The arrangement was so beautiful and fresh that the lady I had it delivered to, cried. Mandi and Forever Flowers delivered the next day and this transaction was easy for me to complete. If you want the best, call Mandi and she will take excellent care of you. Arthur MacArthur

This is one of two shops - the other being in Southend (Queens Rd - just off the high street near…read morethe car park). They are full of quirky gifts and cards and tend to stock cards that are a little different from the norm. Their prices are not too bad and you can pick up some interesting gifts from as little as £5. The owner is a really nice guy, he'll always run over and open the door for you if you have a buggy! I do like shops who go the extra mile to give a customer good old fashioned service!
