there's not much really local one in stockport but i believe it's linked with the one in buxton so i'm not going to recommend that at the moment, a small one in whaley bridge thats friendly and good but only a small selection of reps, so the only others are in manchester but i've not been to any of them so couldn't give opinion on them. sorry not much help . have a lovely holiday anyway and no no floods up our way too many hills.

yeh i know its not derbyshire but new haven is just a couple of miles away from buxton (where i live) and manchester is the nearest area daft i know and yes i travel to the mill its good but even taking the short back route it takes about 45 mins to an hour.

thanks for the heads up on manchester shops i've been meaning to explore them (won't bother now) but i always get lost around manchester and just as soon take the way i know even if it does take longer.

There is one rep shop in stockport (stockport aquatic,pond and reptile's) which has something to do with the shop in buxton (the jungle) Please do not use either of these shop's as they are cr*p. But there is another shop in stockport called stockport pet wharehouse, now this one is very good! (i use this one all the time). Also crystal rep's in whaley bridge they are very friendly and helpful.


royalnking where about's in buxton are you??

*freaky* Us too! Stockport pet warehouse is just near the bamford arm's. You pull up at the light's there with the pub on your right and 2 sign shop's on your left in between which is a road you turn down there and you see a paint sign on a large brick building, follow it round and you will see a sign, The owner is called john. If you need a phone number then let me know and i will send it you.
