Welcome to todays diary entry! The shop is really starting to take shape now, and it’s actually becoming quite exciting to see the changes unfold day by day. We’ve been steadily introducing new lines and expanding our offering—this week we welcomed a couple of new brands like Brunner, which is a great addition to our range. They’ve got some really smart gear, and I think it’ll go down well with our customers, especially those looking for more stylish, practical outdoor solutions.

We’ve also started displaying a fresh batch of plate sets, mugs, cookware, and other campsite essentials. It might sound like a small thing, but that kind of stock gives the shop a real pop of colour and personality. These little lifestyle touches help paint a picture for customers—they don’t just see the product, they visualise it on their next trip, being used on a sunny morning with a brew in hand or laid out at a campsite picnic. That emotional connection is what sets us apart from being just another shop.

The shop is going through a bit of a transformation, and I’m really looking forward to seeing it evolve into more of a destination location. We might not have a massive footprint to work with, but with a bit of clever thinking and the right product selection, we’re managing to make the most of every inch. I want people to come here not just to grab something off the shelf, but to enjoy the experience—browsing, chatting, getting advice, and maybe discovering something they didn’t even know they needed. That’s how you build loyalty. That’s how you create a buzz.

What excites me most is that people are already noticing the changes. The shop feels fresher, brighter, and more aligned with what today’s campers want. It’s not just about function anymore—it’s about quality, comfort, and creating memorable experiences. If we can tap into that and become a go-to spot not just for essentials but for inspiration, then we’re doing something right.

With all that said, our focus is still very much split at the moment with the Blakemere show rapidly approaching. It’s creeping up fast, and we’re now close enough to start getting a first proper glimpse at the weather forecast. So far, the outlook is decent—most importantly, no rain on the radar (yet!). That alone is enough to lift the mood, because as anyone who’s run an outdoor event knows, a dry day can make all the difference. Let’s hope that forecast holds steady because it really would set the tone for the whole weekend.

There’s definitely a buzz about what’s to come, and I’m trying to take a moment here and there to appreciate the little wins along the way—because they really do add up. The shop’s getting there, the show’s coming together, the team is growing stronger, and the season is picking up pace. It’s a lot, but it’s also exactly what we’ve been working towards—and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
