We've had a new delivery of Coti chains just in time for Christmas!! We think they'd make a perfect Christmas gift for a loved one! They are stylish and elegant with a modern twist. They'd look stunning on glasses or sunglasses. Call in to have a look. 🎁🎄🎁

We like to shout about local businesses and there's one particular one on our street that we wanted to tell you about! Kraken Comics are doing evening events for adults and children. Next Friday is Open Mic Night for under 18's (see their website for details). It's on from 6-8pm on the 12th and there's no need to book. They also do crafty evenings which are fantastic and our daughter who is 15 loves going.
Check out Kraken Comics and support local 😁😁

The football team we sponsor, U13 Colts, are top of the league!! Well done boys!! 👏

🏆 U13 Colts Go TOP of the League! 🔝⚽

What a performance from our U13 Colts today! The team showed incredible determination, teamwork and skill to secure a well-deserved win — and with it, they climb to the top of the league!

Every player gave their all, and the spirit on and off the pitch was unbeatable. Huge thanks to the coaches, supporters & parents who cheer the boys on each week & to our sponsors -Ball & Gatehouse Opticians

Enjoy this moment, Colts — you’ve earned it! 💪⚽🔥

We're losing one of the team today. Jana has decided to move on to pastures new. We've loved having her with us and we wish her all the best in her next role ❤️

At our Birthday Party we showcased some new frames by ResRei. They were our best seller on the day and as a result we've decided to stock them! We have a couple left over but our full range will be available in January and we can't wait!!
*Amelie looks amazing in them!

We have truly had the most wonderful day! I never thought so many of you would turn up to our open day! Olly and I have been blown away.
I'm going to forget someone here but thanks to Kraken Comics for the early morning coffee delivery to get us started! The Little Gift House for the balloons. Obviously Coco Bakes for the fantastic cakes (we have one left, it's mine!).
To the amazing Duncan Ward from The Eyewear Company for working all day styling you all and making you look fabulous!! Honestly, he's so good at what he does!
We've had lovely flowers from Wolf Eyewear (such a nice touch), Peter from Stepper with a surprise visit and Peter and Dorothy Ball coming in to say hello (also with flowers). Blue Strawberry Financial Services Limited popped in to wish us well and share our cake - we love how friendly our street is.
Mostly we'd like to thank our magnificent team without whom none of this would be possible. Honestly, we are so so proud to have you alongside us.
And lastly, to all our fantastic patients. You've supported us over the last 10 years and we truly appreciate every single one of you.
Here's to the next 10 years! 🥂🥂

(The photos really don't do the day justice but we were too busy to take any more!!) 😆🥰🥰
