And just like that we are waving good bye to another year and by in large I am happy to do so!
It is my dearest wish that 2022 will be one that is less troubled and calmer than what we have experienced to date. At 2 duck trading we are taking short breaks over the the coming weeks before we resume the markets later in January. We will be posting online orders from 4th Jan again when the post offices reopen and then intermittently every few days thereafter. We may take a few more days off in January but will keep you posted. Wholesales also resume once Aramex starting picking up again.
Office closed Monday 17th to Friday 21st Jan. All orders sent 24th Jan
We wish all our dear friends and baskets lovers the most happy and safe New Year and hope that there are some safe celebrations as we see the new year in.
Whilst I know that the city of lights has postponed much of their festivities it is alway a joy to behold Le Tour and imagine her in full celebration. Happy New Year.
