How sad :(
 
Tried to get onto the Daisy and Tom website today (the gorgeous shop in Manchester) and got the message that its ceased trading after 10 years.....how sad is that :(
It sold the most gorgeous things ever-toys,clothes and the best prams EVER.....such a shame.



If no-one else knows what im on about im sure Lettie will-she has seen a close up of the floor ;)

It was a nice shop, was it expensive? It is a while since I have been but if it was overpriced that is probably why it closed down.

Yea it was-but a beautiful shop.I bought Jack some bits from there as a treat.
The designer clothes were quite main stream IMO (most of them) but the toys,furniture and other bits were fab.
As form the prams-i just stood there and gawped for hours.....they had foreign ones too.Oh dear hope i dont get broody so i can buy more lush prams!
This was one of the first prams i liked in there.....not everyones taste,and imagine how dirty it would get :eek:

It closed down about a year ago now. I noticed it on the day of the Great Manchester Run last year. I was gutted!! They did some lovely furniture and had a fantastic books section.

Posh and Becks used it a lot. Manchester is always changing, noticed today that the Boddingtons brewery has gone, all thats left is the chimney .:eek:

lol wow that has been gone for ages
there was some kind of arguement with boddingtons because for one of there recent adverts they used a stone roses or similar song
they had pulled buisness out of manchester quite suddenly
the mancunians therefor said that if they werent good enough then neither was a song that represented them
or it went something like that

it was the one where he was milking a cow and the song was the one about shakin your melons man lol
eee by gum

The chimmney and a bargain car park.....£3.00 all day, it was £1.00 over xmas. Used daisy and toms quite a bit, it was expensive but had nice stuff, being turned into apartments as we speak.

Bet your well chuffed!
It was seriously expensive but they weren't selling 'average' stuff so i didnt feel it was a con IYKWIM.....if i had more money i would have bought more there, but hey i didn't have Corker's money then :D
Note to self-find out their new trading name ;)
