00:00 Hi, my name is Kim, I am the owner of the little Christmas shop and Mrs Claus's kitchen
00:29 in Ironbridge. I am the first Christmas shop and Christmas cafe in the UK. We also have
00:35 a licensed tea room so you can have a bottle of Prosecco with your afternoon tea for whatever
00:40 celebration or you don't even need to celebrate, you can just treat yourself. A lot of people
00:45 love the festive afternoon tea. We've been open here now six weeks, we've been established
00:50 for three years. We moved the Christmas shop up here to incorporate the tea room as well.
00:57 It's very very busy and we absolutely love it. We get a lot of tourists in Ironbridge
01:20 because it's a World Heritage Site, a lot of people come to see the bridge. We specialise
01:24 in Christmas decorations of the Ironbridge. A lot of tourists come in to buy a Christmas
01:30 decoration from wherever they've been in the world. Obviously we sell the Ironbridge Christmas
01:36 baubles, we sell Ironbridge magnets and snow globes. So we are very very busy with tourists
01:42 and even locals as well. The busiest time for our shop is the run up from October to
02:01 December.
