Fab University!

Postal Supplies and Tamebay stayed on in Exeter the evening after the eBay University at the Gipsy Hill Hotel. A quiet unassuming hotel on the face of it but with one outstanding bonus, the new head chef who is French and goes by the nick name "Fab". And fab he is indeed, the food is simply sublime, so much in fact that we couldn't resist taking photo's of the deserts that we chose!



Fab has only been with the hotel a week, and his stated aim is to gain a Michelin Star for the restaurant. If you're ever looking for somewhere to stay the Gipsy Hill Hotel is on the edge of town convenient for both the M5 motorway and just five minutes from Exeter airport. Deceivingly directions will take you through an industrial estate but fear not, the hotel is discreetly situated at the end of a lane. Regardless if it was in the middle of an industrial zone Fab the French chef would more than make up for it!

eBay University - Exeter

We were in Exeter this weekend for the last eBay University of the year for PowerSeller Questions and Answers. Chaired by Dan Wilson this is the chance for attendees to ask anything and everything they want to know about real life eBaying from successful PowerSellers. The panel consisted of Sue, Andy from Postal Supplies and myself.

Following the University we went for a meal at the Red Square Russian Restaurant in Exeter and if you ever visit the town it's highly recommended! Sadly they had too many varieties of vodka for us to taste them all... but we had a jolly good time trying!
