Nicky arrived in Bluebell, her van, at 9.12 a.m.
George and Ashley came in to commission the new boiler. Now I just have to build a waterproof shelter over it.
We have about twenty boxes of fresh, exciting stock in boxes, which needs to be sorted and shelved. In another corner we have five boxes of books that are destined for the dump. As always Nicky went straight for the boxes we’re throwing out and started rummaging around in them. For her this is the literary equivalent of the Morrisons skip.
Closed at 5 p.m. and went to the pub with Callum and Bob. In the pub I spotted the woman who is running The Open Book – an American woman who was scribbling in a notebook on the table in the corner. Introduced myself and invited her to join us. She has a bookshop in the States, and after the others had left, she and I chatted about the trials of bookselling in the twenty-first century.
