If you can't see it in the photos then pop up before the 24th August and have a look. 

The Quayside in Looe is the perfect place to go crab fishing and visitors here line the harbour with their buckets and bait. Our shop is positioned right in the middle of the East Looe Quay and we sell a bucket, bait and line deal for £3 to hundreds of tourists. I can see them from the shop window and I often walk along the Quay after work to check out how they have fared. Today Looe is holding a crab fishing competition with prizes for the most crabs caught. Find out more about crabbing and marine conservation with the experts from the Looe Marine Conservation Group Last week I saw a little girl giggling away as she filled her fathers hood with little crabs while he was busy concentrating on his own crab line! What can you catch? There are 3 main types of small crab living in the rocks of the quayside. Common Shore Crab   These little guys are the main ones you'll find, they can vary in colour from dark bottle green to purple. Edible Crabs You...

We've gone a bit Pirate mad at Toyday and created a window display with all things Pirate!  The sun is shining and I'm sure many of you will be heading to the beach or nearest park this weekend.  Our Magnetic Fishing Game and Wooden Spade would make great fun for the day out. The Decorate Your Own Pirate Chest is great for keeping all your little treasures safe in your personally designed special box. In the picture below you can see somethings essential for Pirate themed birthday parties such as our Pirate Telescope .  Emily's also customised our Pirate Flags to look like bunting, which would be perfect for decoration. My favourite thing in the window has to be the Sailor Rag Doll , which is from our new collection of rag dolls .  I know I would have loved this as a little girl and probably want to take it with me everywhere i went!  I also need to point out our new Small Pirate Rag Doll with a rattle inside, which is suitable for children fro...
