Iconoclast Dreamer

Magnificent collection of books, however why are some of them priced higher than retail price whilst they are still in print? I might as well buy books new. Additionally the women workers in the shop like to talk politics like the customers can't hear them, nice pair of lefty loonies, not very professional.

I love this shop but was shocked yesterday by the lack of protections in place in relation to Covid. The perspex screen round the till worked, but staff were not wearing masks and were really close to customers. The spacing markers were almost non existent and really did not work - no one way system or clear indication of spacing. Also , once I was in there, the shop suddenly became teeming and there are no restrictions placed on numbers in the shop. As a result, people brushed up- against me, and ONLY ONE person in terms of customers, apart from myself, was wearing a mask. Please , please, put some effective controls in place, and proactively ask people to wear masks( I realise challenging people is difficult, but even a polite notice reminding people , can help), I won't be coming back until more effective protections are in place.

Always good for a large selection of clothes, with some interesting brands. Often spot an unusual item in the homewares.

Man was a bit rude instead of saying that they were closing he just tapped on his watch.
