Geddis & McKee

Argh, me and hardware stores really don’t work well together, and you’ll know that if you’ve read any of my reviews on the subject. They are super scary, intimidating shops for most females, and I am definitely no exception.
At first glance, Geddis and McKee is a hardcore hardware shop. We’re talking high vis jackets, huge manly boots, every nail /​screw /​whatever else men need that you could possibly think of. It almost screams «man» in a deep, threatening voice.
And then I found some rubber gloves that my mum absolutely loves (I am a true rhyming master), and thought, ‘huh, this shop isn’t as tough as it first looks’. Selling ladies bright yellow rubber gloves is definitely a drop down a notch in the overall manly ratings.
In fact, Geddis and McKee isn’t as scary as I first thought. It has a whole load of household cleaners and the like, pet food and accessories and even a selection of confectionery. Mmm. Some might say it’s almost ladylike. Almost.
