There comes a point every December when the kettle stops being communal.

Right now, between Interhamper, Amazon, and everything else Christmas throws at us, we’re peaking at nearly 400 orders a day. The shop is rammed. The orders are endless. And what we lovingly call organised chaos is, in truth, just chaos.

And when it gets this busy, one rule quietly takes hold:

Tea becomes a solo job.

You don’t ask if anyone wants one.
You don’t announce it.
You don’t make eye contact.

If you want a brew, you make it — quickly, silently, and with purpose — and you try, with all your might, not to forget you’ve made it.

Because forgetting is fatal.

You boil the kettle, and get pulled into packing or answer a customer query only to return to find your mug cold; you drink it anyway, standing up, hoping no one spots you take a few mins off.

Oh, the delightful joys of online retail at Christmas 😃

And yet — somehow — it works.
Orders leave.
Customers smile.
The team keeps moving, grafting, laughing, and eyeing the kettle like it’s an opportunity rather than a guarantee.

And if one of those 400 orders we sent today, know it came with care, teamwork… and a freshly brewed cup that almost went cold.

There is still time guys, we not maxed out just yet…

May your kettle boil quickly and your tea never go cold… Merry Christmas everyone… Wish us luck guys.

Cheers,
