Sadly the Shop closed on Friday (29th Feb ’07). Although I will miss the facility to nip down the road whenever I find I need something, I will miss more the social aspect. Getting a Sunday paper meant chatting to people in the street, seeing the latest on the notice board; my record time to get a paper was seven hours and involved two impromptu meals. Alas no more.
Thanks to Emma and Jason for giving us a successful shop for five years, and best wishes to them and the children for the future.
