Hey all, sorry for the sudden absence.

The night was indeed fantastic, and looking forwards to the next one!

The Haberdash is currently undergoing some changes and developments, which brings me to Jorrigan...;

Due to the stinky weather on the way over we ended up not being able to make it to Kaelia.  We would have had 2 mins to look round, which was not going to please me.  We will instead plan to come over specifically so that we can take advantage of all your fine goods.  Do you restock regularly?  Pesky students taking it all!
Jorrigan


Aye, those students are a pain. Don't they realise if they buy it I have to replace it? Kyah!
We do restock quite regularly, often with one off items, or only one or two things to see how popular they are.
If you bear with us, I'll keep you updated for the best time to visit. We're having some hoohah and are working out the best direction to move in.
Checking www.facebook.com/The.Haberdash will have the most up to date info, as well as new stock. Currently finishing off a couple of gun mods for sale (a sawn off shotgun and an elephant rifle - both modded from standard buzzbee, so good for LARPing etc) and a huge ol' cap rifle.
They're looking good but we need to ensure durability before I photograph them as "finished".

Also it'll give us the chance to meet! Look forwards to it!

We're having some hoohah and are working out the best direction to move in.

I feel I should point out that 'hoohah' as used by the esteemed proprietor of The Haberdash in fact means 'going through the panic that every business newbie goes through at this point in developing his enterprise, which is regarded with indulgent fondness by those of us who recall being in the same tizzy ourselves, and from which he will undoubtedly emerge the stronger and wiser.'

Now, back to pestering artistes to appear at the next Ball.

I have no money, basically.

Well. I have an incredible debt. Still, I lost it all before and clawed my way back to have a home again...I'm sure I can pull something out to keep The Hab trading.

Remind me to show you around my accounts some time.  This is nothing.

Haaa

In the long term, I know you're right.
I have a history that I'll spare our colleagues here from hearing that has caused me to be very...nervous around money.

Still, if this helps The Haberdash find a more stable growth for the future, all the better!

Fantastic stuff!
I look forwards to meeting you in person!

In the mean time, enjoy one of our adverts for the ball (trying to appeal to the greasy student lot here);
