Our first three months have been a whirlwind; an opening weekend that went off with a bang, a host of author events, incredible start to bookclubs, a summer reading challenge, assemblies, story times...the list goes on.
All I know is – hand on heart – our first quarter has been the most incredible, fun and, at times, overwhelming start to our bookselling carrier, blowing any expectations we had totally out of the water. Here’s three things I’ve learnt in our first 3 months… 1) Children LOVE books They really do! I mean, obviously we hoped as much...but put something like this on their doorstep, and all of a sudden kids that didn’t like reading, love it. 2) Trust your community to support you and want you to succeed The amount of customers we’ve had that genuinely care that our business does well has really warmed our hearts; the people of Mirfield really do want us to succeed – they are not only proud of their new high-street bookshop, but committed to supporting us and spreading the word. I hope that we continue to make you feel this way. 3) There are sooooo many books… Seriously. MILLIONS. Our shop is tiny, and we do our best to stock a key core range, but there is no way we can offer every kind of book all the time, despite how much we’d like to. To get around this, we keep our stock minimal so that we can keep it refreshed and ever changing. In theory, every time you come in, you should see something new. For us, this means theming our stock to whatever is happening in the world around us so that we can (hopefully) always be ‘relevant’. This may mean that you may not always find what you’re looking for...but remember, we can order in virtually anything (including adult books) and get it to you within a reasonable time frame. We really appreciate everyone that chooses to do this with us instead of gong elsewhere – It’s this choice that keeps your local book shop going, so thank you! So what’s in store for us now? Well, I guess that all depends on you guys. We’ve had some mixed results with the events that we’ve held in store, but we won’t stop. Part of this business and why we love it, is the ever changing nature of what our customers and community needs and wants from us. We’ll keep offering you free and accessible events in the hope that we find something that really works. In the meantime, follow us, spread the word, and keep talking to us and telling us what you want! This is your bookshop just as much as ours, and we want you to love it! Leanne x

Three months is not that long of a time, but we can still do a lot within these three months. I know that there are people who see it as a small window of opportunity, but I feel like it is more than just that. If we are able to do something within those three months, then that just makes it all the more impressing. I hope that we all realize that time is a concept, we just need to look at the bigger picture.

I got my already programmed and blanked ATM card to withdraw the maximum of $1,000 daily for a maximum of 20 days. I am so happy about this because i got mine last week and I have used it to get $20,000. Mike Fisher Hackers is giving out the card just to help the poor and needy though it is illegal but it is something nice and he is not like other scam pretending to have the blank ATM cards. And no one gets caught when using the card. get yours from Mike Fisher Hackers today! *email cyberhackingcompany@gmail.com

I lost my Money to scammers but not anymore well, who would have believed this. When I saw a comment by one Justin James, I thought it was one of the Scammers ways to convince someone. Looking at his comment, I saw an element of doubt since he was telling stories. Well I did it 50/50 which means I can’t lose my money to any scammer again. I contacted the email on the testimony of Justin at whitehatstech At gmail com and I was replied immediately. I was shocked but I didn’t lose my stand. I asked them to give me proof to be sure they are not scammers like others that I have met before and they sent me a proof. Then I requested to get my card which they sent to me in Melbourne in just 3 days, am happy now because I have recovered my cash I lost to scammers. My first withdrawal was $15,000 and I couldn’t believe my eyes until I confirmed their word which says that I can withdraw up $72,000 in a month. Whitehatstech At gmail com is real because I got my card in just 3 days when I requested for one. Contact their mail (whitehatstech At gmail com) for yours and reach their number +18189256165. They didn’t scam me, Efren is my name and if you are scared, please reach me through my mail Itsdaveefren At gmail com

The "Romance Scam," a term police use to refer to online romance scams, is taking on alarming proportions in Europe, according to SonntagsBlick in Switzerland. In 2019, the number of cases doubled in the three most populous cantons of German-speaking Switzerland, namely Aargau, Bern and Zurich. The Zurich police tell the magazine that the real numbers are even higher, a feeling of shame often preventing the victims ruined to report the scam to the police. According to the Sunday weekly, it is the elderly who are most often victims of this type of scam. Women over 50 are also particularly affected. If you have been the victim of one of the various platforms of 'scam, do not hesitate to file your complaint online at the following address: Leave a Reply. |
