We've been shortlisted for this. Yoinks. This means (apparently) that we will be mystery-shopped twice in the next fortnight as part of the judging process. I will try to remain calm and not act like a grinning, over-friendly idiot every time someone new enters the shop over the next two weeks... Congratulations to our other shortlistees: Bookstór in Cork, Mr B's Emporium of Reading Delights in Bath and Seven Stories Bookshop in Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

  1. Congratulations!

    My next question is - how does one become a mystery bookshop buyer?! I may have just found my dream job...

  2. Joy indeed. Many, many congratulations, Mark and Nicki. You really deserve this, and I am earnestly trying to 'witch' that you win.

    Surely you deserve a write-up in the local rag for such an accolade.
