If you visited the cafe at bookish recently and e’d really appreciate your reviews on Google! It’s been a bumpy ride these past 12 months as hospitality is HARD, but Mr Bookish has been cooking up a storm this month!

Adds to shopping list. I assume I can but anything that dries things out seems to have more of an effect on me after taking Accutane as a teenager. My deafness also makes colds seem 10 times worse than they are!

Best cold remedies so that I stop almost sneezing my eyeballs out and that I feel human enough to brilliantly interview Jojo Moyes tomorrow evening to a sell out audience?!….GO

Last night I had a dream that we had a sell out event with Ben Fogle but on the night another writer/mathematician also called Ben Fogle turned up….chaos ensued. I have a cold, I blame the Lemsip.

Today from 10am I am driving the till in our Abergavenny shop. Small but perfectly formed 55a Frogmore Street has, in my opinion, the BEST book smell in the world.
