    Wyevale Garden centre in Woburn Sands sell small furries......... Have you thought about contacting a breeder - to be honest, some of the folk who breed for pet shops don't always breed the best healthiest animals, far better to buy from somebody who breeds for show and may have a mismarked baby or two........ Alternatively - the RSPCA at Blackberry Farm at Aylesbury may have some looking for a good home.

    Hi Raksha,

    I would happily buy from a breeder if I could find one. I will also look into the Wyevale Garden Centre!

    Thanks

    The pet shop in WEstcroft has a huge ad board where breeders advertise all types of pets.

    Hi I've been and had a look, and found one ad for dwarf hamsters, unfortunately they won't be ready until 28th October!

    Thanks anyway!

    I have always rated Neath Hill Autos, based surprisingly enough in Neath Hill:rotfl:

    My Mum has used them for about 15 years and I have used them on and off for about 12 years (only time haven't used them was when I had to use a Ford garage to keep the warranty going)

    in stacey bushes, theres this garage called DS Motors and i reckon they are very good. They are quite busy during the day but i think u can book an appointment few days in advance. I was quite amazed with their service.

    I was there last month to get my car MOT for the first time. they were honest and even though my car was there for the whole day, they charged me 30mins labour to get 2 jobs done. They really could of said it took 2 hours or whatsoever n ripped me off cuz I am just a teenage girl on my own. (or maybe i just didnt like look i can afford it anyways so they let me off?)

    at the end it costed me 75 pounds for everything. I was prepared to pay 100+ for it cuz i thought this is how much a MOT will cost. mum used to take it to bletchley alot but i reckon they are bit dodgy.

    DS Motors: 01908 313885

    hope it helps!!

    I always go to 'John Spademan' in Stony Stratford, perhaps not the cheapest, but he always seems very fair!
