Shopping In Garden Centres - Gardening gloves, Santas, Cookbooks

The Squires Garden Centres offer all sorts of goodies. They are already stocking Santas for Xmas and even gifts for next spring.

I can vouch for the Ispy books, at least the one on Trees which I use constantly when walking or on a day's outing as a passenger in a car. I think I'll go for birds next. 
I'm sure some little of big boys would like football cars or car badges. 

I loved the books, especially the tractor shaped book on the Tractor.



The cafe is popular with a queue at lunchtime.

You can book afternoon tea, £7.95 for one, £14.95 for two - but with a non-refundable £5 deposit.


Books and boot-scrapers.


Pets and fish to look at and maybe buy. If you need information on pets, their website has information on all sorts of pets such as rabbits. (But not chickens.)

Calendars and diaries for the Xmas stocking.


All kinds of j gardening gloves. I want thorn-free gloves for picking roses - must look next time.


Want a stop as well as a shop - disabled toilets.


For the keen gardener, a kneeling pad.
 For the husband who has everything, a copyable watering can.

If you can't get there, they send to catalogues and emails and offers. I got a pair of gardening gloves just for joining up and giving them my email. The last catalogue had a voucher for free bulbs to lure you in for a visit.
Their garden centres are in Stanmore, Twickenham, Windsor and other places.
