There's no avoiding it now... Christmas is upon us. Like most of you, we had a moan back in September/October when the big boys of retail started pushing it on us ridiculously early, but now that Advent has officially begun, we're beginning to feel a bit festive around here. After all, what's not to love about a month where you get to drink every day without anyone suggesting you may have a problem? Not to mention the obscene amount of decadent food, increased number of parties, layer upon layer of warm comfy clothes and endless hours sat in front of fireplaces listening to Bob Dylan lose it.

Anyway, December marks the end of our first full calendar year in business, and as a thank you for all your support so far we'd like to give you some free stuff. So, from now until Christmas Eve, we're offering T-shirts, hats, bags and discounts to everyone, online and in store. In store, you'll get the full range of freebies and discounts, and online we're offering all the clothing and headwear deals (due to the ever-increasing fees charged by Royal Mail, book and magazine discounts are only available in store - paper is really heavy!). To qualify, simply tell us the free item you'd like to receive when you get to the 'notes' section of your online order. Make sure it's in stock first, obviously.

If you have any questions about ordering online, send us an email or give us a call at the shop. We're open 11-6 Monday - Saturday, although it's best to call after 11.30 because mornings = yuck.

Finally, here are the all important order deadlines if you want to receive your order before Christmas:
UK: Wednesday 18 December
Europe, USA & Canada: Tuesday 10 December
Rest of World: Monday 2 December

The shop in Digbeth will be open until 4pm on Christmas Eve.
