So, we looked for something equally cheap and a bit bigger to move into. Sadly, because I co-own the Big Green Bookshop, the mortgage companies were unwilling to offer us a mortgage. Small businesses/big risk etc.
So we decided to rent our flat out and to find a place to rent ourselves. Which is how we found Brookmans Park, the place where we're going to open our new shop.
Serendipity eh?
Anyway, the lovely tenants who are currently at our flat are moving out on April 20th, and I thought it might be a good idea to put something on our blog, in case there were any readers who were looking for a place to move to.
Below are all the details, and if you do know anyone/couple who may be interested, please get in touch.
The shop's phone number is 020 8881 6767 and if i'm not there, someone will give you my mobile number.
Thanks for this.

Hi Simon and Tim
ReplyDeleteNicola the ex book clubber here. I can't help with the flat situation, sorry, but I have just caught up with your blog after a bit of an absence and wanted to say congratulations about the new shop - very exciting! - and also about your little boy called Ollie. I also had a little boy called Ollie a year ago! Great minds eh?!
Great to hear you guys are doing well, I still get the book club updates from Jacquie which I are very interesting and I miss having a great bookshop like yours around the corner!
