Hi all,
Does anyone know what became of the 2 brothers (steve & ? Parkinson) who were at Palmers before Kings Reptiles. They moved later to the Edgware Road.

I went in about a week and a half ago and was disappointed with what he had in stock. Lots of boarders but very little for sale, not much equipment either.

My partner and I ended up getting the train to Crystal Palace - now that was certainly worth it!

I have an interest to declare here - I know Simon - but I would suggest it is still worth supporting his shop. Also remember that if you go miles and miles to a shop and it suddenly moves or closes, then by that time your local pet shop may also have closed through lack of business. I'm not saying all pet shops should be supported, but I would sooner have a local supplier.

Of course it's nice to make an excursion sometimes to other places to see what they've got.
