Please note that because I am currently unable to get out to my other job due to illness I am opening the shop, which is something I am capable of doing, 10-5 Monday to Saturday for the next three weeks. Customers would be appreciated to make up for loss of earnings elsewhere! I will also open anytime during the day you request. I can sit selling books but I cant, for now, do much else. So take this chance to get in and visit us.
