I'm sorry I missed you, if I'd realised you worked there it would've been good to say hello. You have a great little shop, and one I look forward to sharing with readers soon...Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00081296214039287324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8352104773840153594.post-27706738716307616352014-10-27T09:32:30.202+00:002014-10-27T09:32:30.202+00:00Hello Erica, I have just found your card on my des...Hello Erica, I have just found your card on my desk in Oxfam Music and Books in Aberystwyth! Was it you or the Galloway's boy who left it here on Saturday? :)<br /><br />Eighteen months ago I saw an advert for a part time manager in the window of this shop and couldn't resist! I'm loving it here, it's full of weird and wonderful books and weird and wonderful people! Hope I'm in next time you or the Galloway's boy calls in!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11894200549651129948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8352104773840153594.post-70454705349027726332014-10-17T21:47:18.080+01:002014-10-17T21:47:18.080+01:00Thank you for your comment Cathryn, to hear from a...Thank you for your comment Cathryn, to hear from a former Gallowayan has made my evening. <br /><br />Galloways was a wonderful bookshop and despite moving away from Aber more than ten years ago I reckon a good third of my current book collection is from your family's bookshop.

We have good memories from those times and it's lovely to hear that others also thought it was special (for a variety of reasons). Thank you, you've lifted my day.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11894200549651129948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8352104773840153594.post-71008649275392674902014-10-12T20:07:52.251+01:002014-10-12T20:07:52.251+01:00Hi Suzanne, thanks, I'm glad someone agrees wi...Hi Suzanne, thanks, I'm glad someone agrees with me about their story!<br /><br />And yes, a year since Books are my bag. I've spent today recovering from my bookshop crawl - come back next week to find out where I've been...

Such a pity the shop is no longer there.<br /><br />On a different subject, can't believe that it it is a year since your last bookshop crawl for BAMB. Hope this year;s is equally successful and really looking forward to reading about it over the coming weeks (so no pressure ...)Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16415941007935054416noreply@blogger.com
