Hi ,

Welcome back - it's great to see you again!

Now that 2023 has really started (since a few stragglers have staggered back to work after an extended Christmas break!), you'll notice that 'things' are starting to happen! People are talking about Valentines, New Harborough Cinema, Leicester Comedy Festival, 6 Nations Rugby etc, and even Carnivals! And that's because it's all happening very soon to give us a lift from the doom and gloom as broadcast every day by the country's media.

There's been a great reaction to last week's newsletter feature of 'EVENTS BY ITALIAN MENU', a new function/private party venue on the outskirts of Harborough, near Desborough.  If you are planning a wedding, or any private event this year, it's really worth having a look here. It's refreshingly 'unique' as you'll discover when you visit and talk with the owners, and the good news is, it's surprisingly affordable!

Please scroll down this newsletter to read our latest stories/articles, and take a peek at some tempting local offers (including JACKS FOR WOMEN's 40% SALE. and COMPUTER & SOFTWARE LESSONS from MH TECH CENTRE) from a few of the very best recommended businesses in Market Harborough. And then find a pick of some brilliant upcoming events in and around the town, brought to you by thebestof Market Harborough, your community hub for thebestof everything local.

And finally, click on the image below for an exciting update on news about our Harborough Cinema.

Have an amazing week!

Simon

Time To Time

Market Harborough's Largest Independent Stockists of Wall Clocks, Alarm Clocks, Pendulum Clocks, Mantel Clocks, Watches, Childrens' Watches - all Accessories and Repairs.


My wife has a 28 year old Breitling that we bought in Barbados for our 25th wedding anniversary. She wears it 24 hours a day. It has never missed a beat until recently when it stopped. As it is a 'Jolly Posh' watch we took it to the Breitling shop in Leicester who sent it off to their official repair place. We had an email from them. Basic repair cost £1800. That's without any warranty. Full repairs including new glass and replacement diamond £4,000 - ish. No thanks, I can buy a good watch for that. We brought it to Time to Time and the fault turned out to be that previously, Timsons had fitted a battery that was too thin and didn't quite touch the contacts properly. The lovely man (sorry I forget his name) at Time to Time saw this and fitted a new battery, a millimeter thicker than the old one. Now the watch is ticking away just like new. £1,795 saved. Anyone who posts less than five stars here needs a visit to the Geriatric Neurological department of their hospital.

Blackberry Hill Carpets & Flooring

Blackberry Hill Carpets & Flooring in Market Harborough is the long established buyer's tradesman for all types of quality carpets, flooring and professional fitting for the home or business premises.


Flawless from start to finish. Gareth was incredibly generous with his advice, even when it meant we might choose a less expensive flooring option—a rare quality in sales. Paul was helpful and accommodating throughout, while Craig’s efficiency and attention to detail in fitting the flooring were outstanding. He genuinely cared about getting it right and ensuring we were happy with the result. Would highly recommend for LVT flooring.
