Dearest Subscribers, It’s been brought to my attention that yesterday’s post went out with the comments restricted. This was absolutely an ERROR. I love hearing from you, and comments will always be open to ALL subscribers on the Receipt when it goes out. This is the first time I’ve messed this up on the settings but with the influx of new subscribers recently I just wanted to point out this wasn’t a sneaky sales tactic to get you to upgrade to a paid subscription.

Good Morning! It’s Friday and it’s Half Term (Schools are closed). Remember last week when I said it was due to rain and ruin everyone’s holidays - well, it did. It has rained every day this week; the plants were all quenched, but the children were all miffed. Today the rain has already happened, early enough for it to matter less. The sun is out now and perhaps the slides in the parks are already dry enough to slide down! Not that it matters much to me of course, being inside this bookshop all day.

Hello to all my new subscribers, I’m so glad you’re here. I’ll be back in the bookshop on Friday, and I’ll tell you all about it in the free Receipt from the Bookshop then, but in the meantime today’s post is for my paid subscribers. By the by, the Book Club discussion thread for May is here. If you enjoy reading my work please consider a paid subscription to access everything. You can interview me for that promotion here. All Shares, Restacks and Recommendations are really appreciated.

Good Morning, and GOOD MORNING. That’s me, shouting, because there are a lot more of you here than the last time I wrote. In fact, last week’s Receipt went out to 6,296 and today’s is going out to …*checks data, blinks!* 8017 of you! What?! I mean, welcome, welcome! It’s grrrreat to have you here (oh please god let there be some good content today). Shall I set the scene? It’s another gorgeous day here on the Fylde Coast. Just about warm enough for bare arms and ankles - the sky is airforce blue.
