WEDNESDAY to SATURDAY only
PLEASE NOTE: As Hobbies Plus is, for the most part, a
one-person business, I frequently need to leave the shop for 5-10 minutes at a
time to post mail orders, get lunch, go to the bank (30 minutes) and so on. If
the phone is not answered, please try again later. The answering machine will
generally be on if the shop is closed for longer periods.
E-mail SPAM (junk e-mail).
The Hobbies Plus email server is currently configured to zero-tolerance for
SPAM. Any email exhibiting any of the common characteristics of spam (including
no subject line and subjects with ALL CAPITAL LETTERS will be automatically
deleted. In my experience, it is rare for legitimate emails to be deleted,
however, should you not receive a reply to an email after a few days, then
please try again or phone, as it is possible your email did not get through.

Generally our hours do not alter for long weekends. ie. we are only open on the
Saturday. Always closed Good Friday and Christmas day. Generally open normal
hours between Christmas and New Year but closed New Year's Day. We would also
recommend ensuring we will be open if you are making a long trip especially to
the shop as, although we try to avoid it, there are occasions when we can not be
open during our normal hours and have little or no advance warning.

be able to use it as well as those who wish to make an after-hours appointment.
The small print section.
Don't worry, it's nothing too boring. But some people seem to think a business
site needs a privacy policy these days. Not sure why, hardly anyone reads them
and probably fewer actually believe them. But here's my version of one anyway.
Basically any information you provide to me at Hobbies Plus is pretty much
treated how you hope it would be. I hate spam and junk mail as much as you do,
and therefore it doesn't end up being sold or given away to anyone else, whether
I think they would use it that way or not. Credit card details are not kept on
file (unless you specifically request it) except as required by the bank (6
months).
