Down a side street a bookshop, bought a 1st ed. P.G. Woodhouse there. I remember a shop on the corner of Lord Street where I was bought socks, smelt slightly of rubber on the pastel bands. Broadbents book shop - closed last month. https://www.lancs.live/news/lancashire-news/owner-explains-reason-closing-north-29857946 Parkinson's second hand bookshop still going though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you provide a link to where this practice has happened recently? Edited yesterday at 15:31 by HeHasRisen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early release at some point sure but in two months? I genuinely can't see that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
