The croquet season has started now so I phoned first, left a message and then on Friday 8 September called in to collect my mallet, ready or not, only to find the business had closed. All the windows have plastic covering over them, no notices on the door to say what is happening, no answer to my phone calls. Does anyone know what is happening to that business and how I can get my croquet mallet back.
