I think there is more fun in a bookshop at this time of the year than any other time. It is wonderful being able to help customers find something, particularly when the book they came in for is either no longer in print, or it's too late to order it for Christmas.
We will be open until 5.00pm on Christmas Eve (next Thursday) and we'll open again on Sunday 27th from 10.00-2.00 for those of you who are heading to the craft market and need a late gift. Then we'll be swanning around at home until Tuesday 29th, with the 'don't enter' sign on the front gate.
Thank you to everyone who has been through our doors over the last 12 months, you've certainly made life interesting and our business worthwhile. From us both:
We wish you a safe and peaceful Christmas and a stunning New Year.
Thanks Jellie for this great photo.

BOOKSHOP WINDOW
We'd like to thank all those who've come into the bookshop simply to say how much they appreciate our Christmas window. I took a couple of photos, however the reflection from the glass interfered with the clarity of what I took. So here's my effort in case you haven't been past in the last few weeks.
If you look really hard you'll see at the bottom of this last photo a small grey dog, I hope the lady who wanted to buy him was successful in finding her own at Glenn's Sports & Gifts...!!

We were particularly pleased to see this title had won the Australian history award.
