Our customer service during Christmas
Christmas is here. Once again.
*Again, it’s just around the corner. The time of year when we celebrate Christmas in different ways. For some, the Christmas spirit is all about skiing and glittering snow, for others it’s about gathering around the Christmas table with the whole family, not to forget those who enjoy a good book and woolly socks in the corner of a sofa. No one way is better than the other, because the most important thing again this year is Christmas joy. *
We wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year 2024!
