How the hell do Hancock and Brown (purportedly "Swansea's No1 Timber and Builders Merchant") make any money?

* Their website can't handle card payments (it tries, but I've never yet got one to process successfully)

* There's a "click here for a call back" button (but they don't call back).

* There's a telephone number
(but no one is picking up).

Based on my experiences, one day soon they'll go bust and they'll be scratching their heads wondering what went wrong.

You feckers make it too difficult for customers to give you money.
It wood be a shame if they went bust...
 
I’ve just come back from a two week holiday and as much as I enjoyed it I’m never going on a two week holiday again. It’s a week too long.

They need to cement their position among builders’ merchants.

I am about to embark on a one week holiday and every time I do this I come to the conclusion that it’s never long enough. However I also share your view re two weeks.

SJ calls it correctly with ten days.

Generally go away for between two and a half and three weeks, never get fed up with it.

Sounds like you'd get on very well with my wife. Over 15 years together and we only had our first holiday of 2 weeks this year. Even our honeymoon was only 10 days.

Square Peg in Sketty
Y Shed in Gowerton
Full of Graze in Mumbles.

We been in the one in the Mumbles, quirky menu but well overpriced, spicy beans on toast, gets you a slice of sourdough bread cut from a batch and a table spoonful of beans for virtually 9quid thank you very much, plus I didn't enjoy it either.
once bitten twice shy indeed!

Would love to be able to go away for a fortnight, but got no chance, doh!

Places like that will never thrive. £9 for beans on toast FFS!
