The Diary of a Bookseller

MONDAY, 2 FEBRUARY

Online orders: 7

Books found: 5

Mac TV telephoned to organise the film shoot for Wednesday. I spoke to Ishi and arranged to meet her here at the shop at 2 p.m. on Wednesday to have a conversation about what the reality of running a second-hand bookshop is like.

Telephone call this morning:

Caller: ‘Hello! Hello! I think I have got the wrong number, is that Allison Motors?’

Me: ‘You have got the wrong number, this is The Book Shop.’

Caller: ‘Never mind, you might be able to help. Have you got an alternator for a Vauxhall Nova?’

It was dark outside when I locked up, but the days are getting noticeably longer now.

Till total £32.50
