Brand Locations
« on: August 30, 2013, 10:34:08 AM »
Just an idea I had whilst browsing the forum. Perhaps it would attract more custom if the sub forums for each manufacturer had where they are based written somewhere prominent, such as in the title. Even though I'm not looking for a new bat if I came to realise that there was a workshop near to me, I'd probably go there just out of interest and a chat and knowing me, probably end up walking away with a new bat.

Just a suggestion.

I think a google map with all the locations was going to be produced. I remember seeing one from sometime ago but it needed updating. Not sure if the new one ever got produced?

Definitely a good idea, gotta be a lot of brands not on there.

Could get the specialist retailers on there too?

Top effort Leo. Think that was the one I've all ready seen. Plenty more that could go on. Good idea about the retailers also.

Thanks to whoever added the cricket shops onto it, have changed them to a red coloured marker and have brands as blue

Can we just add the shops/batmakers we know about or do we need their permission first?
