The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 151
Pot the black! It's only and gone and been the weekend again!
Like a young and highly skilled Snooker player at the top of their game, we find ourselves once again taking a step back to assess the whole situation, movie options and our angle of attack for the weekend's delights. Setting our sights on our target which will earn us the most nostalgia points and set us up nicely for the next movie goodness, we'll take a deep breath before resting the cue on our fingers and bracing over the smooth green cloth. We'll take our time before striking with great accuracy and power, sending our cue ball cracking into its target and our movie of choice onto our screens.
Have a happy retro weekend!

Ever wondered who exactly is behind the scenes at TruffleShuffle? Well our TruffleShuffler insider blog series is the perfect place to look. Each month we take a member of the team and interrogate politely ask them a few questions to help uncover who they are, what they do and what stuff they like or don't like. It's that simple!.
This time we're looking into the world of warehouse busy bee Andy to find out just what makes him tick. Take it away!
What do you do here at Truffle Towers?
I work in the warehouse dealing with dispatching all the customer orders, picking and packing and making sure they are ready for collection by Royal Mail.
I also deal with receiving and booking in all stock.
The Weekly Retro Movie Rundown 150
Sky at night! Is it really the weekend so soon?
Like a keen and excitable amateur astronomer heading out into the dark evening, we're fully prepared for a night with the stars. With more gear than we could possible need, we waste no time in setting up our trusty telescope and aiming it at the vast and infinite universe as we begin to peer through the sights and gasp at what awaits us. Like rewatching old movies, we're peering back in time at some of the biggest stars we've ever seen and wonder just what else could be out there, what events have we missed and of course....are we alone?
Have a happy retro weekend!

Never a Dahl Day In Our Exclusive New The Witches T-Shirts!
As we all know, Witches really are a truly despicable breed! Disguising themselves as sweet old ladies, English Witches (being the worst) are only out for one thing...ridding the world of pesky, smelly kids!
For us, the very thought of a Witch instantly sends images from Roald Dahl's 1983 classic into our heads followed by shivers down our spines!
This true kids classic from one of the most-loved children's authors ever, The Witches is one of those reads that everyone has memories of, whether it had you looking for the telltale signs of a Witch for years after (gloves? wig? no toes?!), or looking at mice in a different way, this tale is always one that sticks in people's minds and for good reason!
Inspired by a classic quote from this childhood icon, our exclusive new The Witches T-Shirts are such a great way to show some Roald Dahl love and simply help spread some happy vibes wherever you go.
Sure to be a hit with fellow Dahl fans! Take a peep...
Exclusive Miffy Designs available now and we're celebrating with a #giveaway!
The adorable Miffy turns 60 this year and TruffleShuffle is celebrating in style with an exclusive range of Miffy clothing, all inspired by legendary Dutch artist Dick Brunaâs so-cute-it-hurts creation.
Dick created the classic children's character, Miffy, in 1955 whilst on a rainy seaside holiday in North Holland. A little bunny kept hopping around the garden of his holiday home - he sketched it by day and at night made up stories about it to entertain his one year old son. That bunny later became Miffy.
60 years later, there are 32 storybooks about Miffy, which have sold over 85 million copies and are translated in more than 50 languages which just goes to show how much we all love her!
To celebrate both Miffy's birthday and the launch of our fabulous new collection, we couldn't resist a cheeky little give-away which is sure to get your cotton tails twitching!
We're offering one lucky Miffy fan the chance to win two Miffy mini posters, a huge selection of best selling books, a Miffy tote bag AND whopping £100 to spend on all our Miffy goodies!
