Our local jeweller Strictly Time thought they’d try a Beach Hop silver sterling bead last year and the response was terrific. So they’ve designed a new bead for Sony Xplod Beach Hop 11 – check it out. They feature "Beach Hop 2011", a Hot Rod, Rock’n’Roll dancers and are on sale for $47 each. You can order yours by phoning Rod on 07 865 6477 or emailing This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
