June update

Hello everybody,

Sorry for the lack of contact recently, we've just been enjoying a spot of nice weather for once. Sadly as we look out of the window today its raining so I guess summers over for this year.
In the past few weeks we've been very busy though. We picked up 2 new customers, the first being an awesome restaurant and bar in Tarporley going by the name of Piste, it's one i've been after for months, they finally came to their senses and decided to stock our hot chocolate. The second customer is The Bull at Shocklach which has very recently re-opened and when i get a spare 5 minutes i'll definitely be going for dinner there, it looked amazing when I dropped their order off.
We've also been busy on the show circuit, for those of you who didn't pop by we were at Bolesworth Classic Showjumping Competition the other week, in the glorious sunshine, it was a fantastic show so we'll definitely be back for more next year, as long as they let us.
Today though we're working on a new product the 'crunchy munchie' which will be a sort of chocolate brownie with honeycomb pieces, at the moment we're still battling to get the honeycomb perfect. If anyone wants to volunteer as a taster then please feel free, theres only so much hot chocolate and munchies one can eat.

See you all soon hopefully.

Much love,

Harry & the Cows.

COMPETITION TIME

Hello fellow fans,

Not only did we forget to mention that Harry's has now spread nationwide after we got our first customer in Staffordshire. The lovely Emma Bridgewater Pottery Factory. But we picked up 2 new customers this week. Firstly the very cute Mad Hatters cafe in Chester, who make some of the coolest cupcakes I've ever seen. So if you're in Chester for lunch make sure to pop along and have a look.
We would also like to announce we are now stocking officially the best tea shop in the country, and thats a fact! You may have seen Davenports Tea Shop on the news recently after being awarded this accreditation, but they're now stocking our hot chocolate and milkshakes so make sure to run along and have a look before it gets too busy to get through the doors.
Also we'd just like to add we'll be at Tatton Park Food Festival on the 17th, 18th & 19th of May so make sure you come along and say hello. As a celebration we're giving away 3 pairs of tickets to the show as well as a voucher for a free milkshake. In order to win the tickets all you have to do is take a photo of an ingredient you would like to see as a milkshake or hot chocolate, the coolest, yummiest and weirdest ones will win the tickets so get your thinking caps on. Either post your photos to Facebook and tag Harry's Milkshake & Munchies in it or email your photos to thecows@harrysmilkshakes.co.uk. Good luck everybody, entries end on the 10th of May.

Much love,

Harry & The Cows

NEW CUSTOMER #1

As promised we are going to fill you in on a few details about our 6 latest customers to come on board as stockists. Apologies for not getting round to doing this sooner but Harry was ill. So quit your complaining.
The first customer to join our gang is The Blue Moon in Chester.

A superb little restaurant / cafe / cool place / river side hang out joint. Personally one of our favourite places to be seen eating a fish finger sandwich in Chester, it has recently changed hands to a lovely lady called Sarah, who is probably one of the friendliest people in the world. So now that its nearly summer what better place to be than on the river banks of Chester watching the boats go by, who knows you might even spot Harry rowing past if your lucky enough. For more information about how cool they are then take a look at their website, just click here. Just make sure to have the hot chocolate when you pop in, it's the finest in town!!


Much love,

Harry & The Cows.

It's been a while but we haven't left you.

Hello everybody,

I know it's been a while since we last attempted to ruin your day with a Facebook update but here we are again trying our hardest. The challenge today is to read the whole thing without pausing for breath (if anyone is hurt in the attempt we are not liable).
So where have we been all this time I hear you cry, alternatively that could be something else but I'm assuming it's you. We have been making your life easier to get your mitts on our products by gaining yet more new customers, and if my maths serves me right. Since our last post a month ago we now have 6 new customers, yes 6!!!
They include: The Windmill Inn at Whiteley Green. The Bhurtpore Inn in Wrenbury. Blythings Farm Shop in Tarporley. The Fishpool Inn in Northwich. The Blue Moon in Chester. And last but by no means least Emma Bridgewater in Stoke-on-Trent.
Over the next few days I will be doing a short update on each of these customers just to give them their own individual glory so make sure to keep an eye out.

In other news, we're working on mint hot chocolate and orange hot chocolate. We're also on the look out for the next Ernest Hemingway to write a poem or story about why our products are so good, in return we will print your finest words on our leaflets in all of the cafe's across the land...... if you wish to enter make sure to keep the stories to around 100 words and send them to the cows@harrysmilkshakes.co.uk. The cows love to read.

Much love,

Harry & The Cows.

NEW CUSTOMER UPDATE

Good afternoon everybody,

We hope you all had a lovely weekend and an enjoyable Valentines. Harry spent Sunday at Emma Bridgewater painting pottery, for any of you who have never been I would highly recommend it. You get to paint a mug and take it home with you. Which essentially translates to paying double the price for a mug which I would be ashamed to ever take out of the cupboard. If anyone asks, my 5yr old nephew painted it which is in fairness probably an insult to even his artistic talent.

Anyway, more to the point. We have been busy again picking up new stockists and would like to put our hands together for an almighty warm welcome to Hocs Fat Pigeon Natural Store in Audlem which for anyone who hasn't been, is a beautiful little shop just up from the church. In addition we are also now stocking our hot chocolate at The Fox & Barrel in Cotebrook, a fantastic pub and one of my personal favourites. Why not find out what they had to say about our products on our testimonials page. Just click here. 

We would love to hear what you think of our products, either comment below or email the cows at the cows@harrysmilkshakes.co.uk

We will also soon be stocking Number 6 in Tarporley, one of Harry's favourite cafe's so as soon as they take their first order we'll be making an almighty song and dance about it. But until then, have a brilliant week.

Much love,

Harry & The Cows.

Valentines.....

So here we are at that time of year again, the time of year where all of us men (including me) go into melt down over what on earth does one get for his loved one. First comes the card. Do you a) Go for one the size of a small car which when turned on its side can provide shelter for a small village. b) Get a card that has something written on it along the lines of "My eyes are bleeding at the thought of losing you" which I feel somehow no longer says love, it more says desperation. Or c) you do what I do and go round your local town for a good afternoon into every card shop you can find, reading every single card you can find, even down to the point of comparing the quality of paper it's made of, as god forbid you should get one made out of cheap card. Nothing says I don't love you like rice paper does.
Then comes the gift, too big and she'll think you should have spent more at christmas, too small and well you probably shouldn't bother with the card anymore. Personally I'm more of a gesture kind of guy, the gift should be meaningful and say something about the relationship, rather than just buying 12 roses from the petrol station on the way home. After all I don't know many girls that prefer the smell of castrol. So remember guys, don't panic. If in doubt attempt to knit her a scarf, she'll probably appreciate the effort more.

Getting a little bizarre now.....

Hello again my lovely Facebook fans and news page readers, we hope you're still spreading the word on how great our products are. We just thought we would let you know that we've gained yet another new customer. Not just any customer though - one of the finest pubs in Cheshire, the Cock O Barton in Malpas. The reason things are getting a little bizarre is due to the fact that last week we added the Cholmondeley Arms where Harry & Nicole went on there first date, well it turns out just a week later we've added the venue where Harry & Nicole went on their second date..... I know what you're thinking, where did you go on the 3rd date? Well sadly Nicole just cooks dinner for Harry now. But not to worry I think there could be another date in the pipeline if it's for the good of the company.
In the mean time we would just like to give a big warm welcome to Matthew and his team at the Cock O Barton in Malpas, and say thanks for stocking us and we hope you and all of your customers continue to love us as much as we love you.

Much love,

Harry & the cows.
