finished work in the bookshop for the day and am writing this at home, which is
a nuisance when it comes to dating phots. If I were writing this in the
bookshop I would just look it up in the directories, I did try using the
internet to find out but have tired of websites trying to sell me cosmetics I don’t
use. Does anyone know when Boots was in Harbour Street.
I think this one is abut the same time but looking the other way.

In the bookshop I am noticing a stronger demand for what I think
of as dated modern fiction, this is the type of book that falls somewhere between
the pulp fiction and the potential literary classic. A fair amount of these went
out on the shelves today, here is the link to the pictures of them http://michaelsbookshop.blogspot.co.uk/2017/10/wilt-in-bookshop.html
Timothy Whites was next door towards town centre - last part of Boots was down some steps and contained their lending library (c1960)
