At last! Our showroom is ready for visitors and will be open from Saturday 8th December but please telephone us for an appointment as we don’t have fixed opening hours. All our products will be on display but please avoid Monday’s following any fairs as everything will need to be unpacked again and put on display. We look forward to seeing our regular customers and new collectors to this fascinating hobby.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers for their patience during the earlier part of this year whilst Alan was recuperating following his operation before Christmas. We do hope you did not have to wait too long for your order.
Alan has been busy building up stocks but at 78 he’s not working until 3.00 in the morning like he used to! So, Alan has asked that anyone thinking about gifts for Christmas should start thinking about them now! Yes, we know you have only just arrived back from your summer holiday but Christmas will be here before we know it!
Don’t forget that we will be exhibiting at York Race Course, York, North Yorkshire on Sunday 25th November and the show is open from 10.00 am to 4.00 pm with over 100 exhibitors. We are on the first floor right in front of the stairs! Lots of new things to see many of which are not on the web site yet! For more information about the event log on to www.dollshousemag.co.uk – we are hoping to bring the 12th scale room settings with us as they have not been seen at shows for at least 10 years and many newcomers to the hobby will have only seen the photos on our web site under the Gallery.
Visitors are welcome to call and see us at home but sadly our new office and showroom was hit with the recent floods in June but we hadn’t realised until we came to complete part of the flooring last week and found some damp patches! We had to take up all the flooring again and we have been told that it will take about four weeks for it to dry so unfortunately the showroom won’t be completed for a couple of months. Please give us a quick call first to make sure we’ve not popped out to the post – you can reach us on +44 (0)1964 537722 or email us at enquiries@borcraft-miniatures.co.uk to make an appointment.
FREE Downloads – take a look at Publications on the On-line shop for our FREE catalogues, both 12th & 24th scales (PDF). Also, under Hints and Tips you will find some new Information Leaflets.
Take care and keep in touch.

We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year and we wish you all well for 2007. My father is now out of hospital, but in need of lots of rest to aid his recovery. We have been told 2 months so we would ask that you be as patient as possible, and if you are requiring items urgently that you please give us a call in order to check that we have what you require in stock. Whilst we are still in a position to meet most moulding orders from stock, certain items are running low. We can take your order over the phone, check stock, then call you or email you with an update on availability. Unfortunately we cannot take any orders for SPECIAL ITEMS at this time as we cannot say when they would be ready. We thank you for your patience and apologise for the inconvenience this may cause.
