Hello ED, TY for the Mallard. The Monday Morning Coffee Club didn't really happen due to a downpor of rain. 3 of us met but only briefly due to the weather. Happily the rain meant that the Op shop was full of customers. Close to the end of the day as I was shelving some books a chap of our vintage asked me about a book re, the history of the Shakespeare Theatre. He was holding it in his hands. He then went on to chat about his visit to the theatre in England. Then to question if Shakespeare wrote all of the plays. From there he launched into the Kings and Queens. He certainly knew a lot of history. I asked him if he had formally studied the history and he told me that he just reads a lot. I was becoming anxious as I could see my fellow workers starting to bring things inside to close the shop and there I was chatting. He obviously needed to. In the end I introduced myself and asked him his name and told him if he wanted to purchase the book he really needed to do it now as the shop was closing. Meeting interesting people is something that I love about working in the shop. It is still pouring down here. The race track for the Mwlourne Cup tomorrow will be muddy and all the ladies with their high fashion shoes etc. will have a hard time. Enjoy your day.
