Just hoping someone has a better memory than me.
A couple of years ago I bought stable name plates from a trade stand a HOYS. They were smart and good value, I cannot remember the name of the trader, if anyone else can would you please let me know their name as I would like to purchase more.
Many thanks

Thank you for all your help, Richardsons is the one.....
slj you would definately make a better detective than me as I had already looked through the HOYS catalogue but found nothing, well done.
Sorry to hear your story lovepink, so sad.

When my Dad retired in 1984 due to heart problems he needed something to do. So he made the most lovely nameplates for our then ponies, all carved and varnished. Still have the nameplates in a box under my stairs, the ponies and Dad being long gone. Never bothered with nameplates since as none can match those!!

There was an advert in the back of this weeks H&H for nameplates, they were £15 and looked lovely. Could be the same person but have thrown it out so cant check.
