Anyone remember this shop, and does anyone know what Ron (Wells?) is up to these days?

Cheers

Would love to know as we only have 2 reptile shops in norwich one of which isn't very good.

Jeez....Sad news, and a real shock. Hope this thread has not upset anyone. Can't believe it, as a child in Norwich i'd often be down his shop for a WTF etc, a very friendly chap, thought i'd see if he was still involved in the herp community as i couldn't find his shop online and figured it'd closed. I'm stunned, wasn't the kind of reply i expected, he can't of been any older than his 50's. Thanks for the info though Andrew.

Hi all, my name is Chris Wells (Ron's son) just stumbled accross this site and wanted to reply to this old question, 'what ever happened to Ron's Reptiles' in Norwich?, well about a year after dad closed the shop, he got ill from Cancer and due to the exteme condition he unfortunatly passed away, this was about 2-3 years ago now, we all miss the day's of having the shop, if any of our old customer read this, i hope you are all well, Cheers - Chris.

Hi chris. I knew your dad very well. I got my first scorpion sting in his old shop on Willis Street lol.
Very sad when we heard he had passed away a few years ago. (If you came to the club more often you'd have known Alex )
He was a great character.
