It is with a very heavy heart that we announce the permanent closure of Only Charged Dubs' shutter doors today.
We could sit down with many beers and list the reasons (mostly political/economical climate/Brexit/Post Covid) related, but we are all feeling it and there are too many other households, companies and businesses feeling the same strains and squeezes too that we wish everyone best through during these times. We're all aware of the headlines. But we'll save you the essay! All we can say is, we tried our very best up against the worst.
Some of you close to us will know that this is a very small family run business and that we have suffered some personal hurdles in the past few years too. This has caused our personal lives to take a bit of a turn. So when the time came to make a decision, it seemed to be made for us. Again, this isn't the place to be delving into it, but life's too short. Things can change very quickly and family has to come first.
OCD would like to thank every single customer who came to us over the years, big or small. Every person who showed up to our trade stands, when it started out as a pasting table and some cheap flyers, to what it became in the last few shows we had. To all the customers who represented our craftsmanship skills in our boot installs and our suspension kits - you mean the world with the trust you put in choosing our workshop!
We will miss running our store and workshop, and will no doubt feel absolutely lost without it...
Thank you to everyone we've met throughout for the support, memories, community and car shows etc. We could go on forever with a gratitude list and would no doubt still forget folks!
But thank you mostly to our staff Chloe and Carl, for making OCD what it has always been. Only we will ever understand what this truly means as a four. This, we will never forget...
Thank you to everyone,
Matt & Holly

(It should go without saying that due to the attachment of personal and private matters relating to the closure of OCD, we will politely ask that our team be offered privacy and decency during this time. We also ask that it is not considered to use social media for contacting members of our team, or for use of ill behaviour/opinion.)
