From Woodpeckers to Magpies!

Thursday morning in Newton Abbot and that usually means coffee in... Magpies!

Situated right near the famous clock tower, Magpies, owned by Rick and his wife Carol, is a delight for lovers of fine things, especially bears and dolls!

So come through the doorway with me... and share the delights.

Gorgeous Charlie Bears! Which one would you like?

Beautiful Dolls...each crying out to be chosen.

What a selection! 'Buy me..no buy me!'

Here is one of my faves...

And when you have finished browsing and buying, you find yourself in the Nest Cafe at the back of the shop.

Rick is always there to guide and help you. He makes every customer feel special. Old fashioned service, you just can't beat it eh?

And service is always with a smile in The Nest Cafe, as Carol, Nicky and Helen greet you in their usual happy way.

But maybe not quite dressed like this!!

Magpies sells so much more than bears and dolls, so when you are in Newton Abbot, do pay them a visit..and don't forget to treat yourself to coffee and a relax!

My purchase today, to brighten up my doorstep, was... a doormat!! ;-)
