Merry Christmas everyone!

Spiffingly good last day for the bookshop. Someone even bought the complete works of H. G. Wells with out frst asking me why 'The War of the Worlds' and 'The Time machine' aren't amongst the titles.

It really must be the last day because I felt sad sharing a warming glass of port with Tom mid-morning for the last time, and positively emotional when I closed the door after the last customer, a very nice young man who has been a steady browser-buyer. He took a large bag-full with him including three nicely bound small volumes containing the complete works of Shakespeare.
