Just realised that it was 13 years ago today that I made the decision to open a bookshop. I’d just sold my business, couldn’t get a job in the local Waterstones so decided to open a small shop…..here is original Bookish. Opened 4th October 2010

I’m raging, I have worked so bloody hard for the past 2 years, got through covid,rescued the business from threat of closure when the building went up for sale, kept every job, worked through illness and jeopardised my own mental health so the government could screw us all.

A secondary school ordered books with us this week. We saved them over £500, they'd be using the same big supplier for years. It has absolutely made a huge difference to this indie bookshop. HUGE.

Waking up to the news that Jeff Bezos is a trillionaire, whilst me and my bookseller tribe have put more back into this country than he ever has or will, is not the energy I need today. If you do anything today buy something you can buy off Amazon from and indie. #indiesrock

23 years ago I survived this train crash. My carriage is on its side in the middle, on top of some others. 34 people died. I share this photo every year, they will never be forgotten.
