Me too for many years...though at my age it's less D.I.Y. these days and more Y.D.I. (You Do It!)

Yeah. Interesting. But what about hiring stuff from HSS😂😂

Indicative of a slow-down in construction maybe, the core of their business must be to the building trade?

Or an increase in competition.  Mann Hire, the new place at Braddan Bridge, some of the builder’s merchants are getting into the hire game as well now.

HSS were in Haldane's in Ramsey for a while themselves. The Hire Centre at the Builder Center in Ramsey also went a few years ago too. Bit behind the times.

No disrespect to the people who work there, some of who past and present were really good - but they've never been the best company to deal with to be honest.

They had some bizarre stock in there without apparently much regard for what gets hired here - they also would rarely go out of their way to get you something if you needed it.

ACE hire have always been much better.

Now if there was an animal-based cafe I’d be tempted to frequent that place. Just as a matter of principle more than anything.
