“The Green Thing” Carbon Neutral Goal

As usual we would like our Blog reading customers to be the first with the news, hence this post.
As a lot of you know the Green Thing is close to our hearts and we have been doing our bit as have the makers of our wonderful products. Reducing, Reusing and Recycling has been our aim for a long time now.
In our efforts, we have realised that it is possible or even essential for even a small business like ours to do even more.
So today we started our steps to voluntary become Carbon Neutral and offset the unavoidable through verified carbon reduction projects and planting trees in Yorkshire and Humber and soon also planting in Germany. Thereby doing our bit to help prevent climate change and creating space for wildlife.
You will be able to read about our efforts and what we are doing, here and also on our website, just click on The Green Thing.

Haven’t guessed which New British movie we provided props to yet?

It’s a fictional movie about a British Sporting Legend.
We are following it on our Facebook page.
And if you missed the first hint
Undoubtedly it will have many fans around the world.
Answer later today, but keep guessing.
The long awaited Steiff Pug is now in stock.
You will have to be pretty quick as it is a Limited Edition of only 750 worldwide and the Pug is a popular breed of dog.
Its sure to be snapped up quick and could be scarce in the near future. We have been waiting since July 2011 for him to arrive and he is well worth the wait.
Standing approximately 30 cm tall (toe to head ) and a little over 30 cm nose to tail, in a lovely red and white felt. A must have to any Steiff Collector, Pug or dog lover.
