Rowan question - for UK members

I live fairly close to Holmfirth so wanted to go to Rowan /yarns for some
yarn - and for self indulgence.

The web site doesn't mention personal shopping and gives no opening hours.
When I telephoned the recorded message gave me 'office hours' only.

Does anyone know if it's possible to visit Rowan Yarns in person?

Mary, I don't live in the UK. When I visited Holmfirth, tours of the Rowan
spinnery were given for groups only. I would suggest Upcountry Yarns for a
large selection of Rowan. They are just around the corner from the mill.

Mary, they do have "contact us" tab on their home page. If you fill in
their enquiry form I'm sure they'll mail you back pretty quickly.

I haven't contacted this company but this is my preferred method of
contacting commercial concerns and I've usually had a reply within 48
hours.

Well, it says that it might take time to reply ... I'm going to ring again
on Monday and go to the link suggsted for Upcountry.

Aha! A woman after my own heart - I need everything done yesterday too
(LOL).

Hope you managed to get what you wanted Mary. :-)

LOL! I meant the site :-)

But we might go today - there are bits of blu in the sky and the rain has
stopped ...

I'll report when we've been, there are other things to do today :-(

Not yet, but I shall.

48 hours always seems to be a long time to wait for a reply even when there
isn't a weekend but this ng was far less tardy :-)

Watch this space for what happens when I do get to Upcountry.

When are you planning to go, maybe later today?
