Bank holiday but the shop was open. Jack is always very good and says we don’t have to work if we don’t want to. Alan and I had nothing planned so we went in. It was a short day anyway , didn’t open until 10 and planned to shut at 3.
We have no idea what happened in the morning FIVE Police cars and one police van chasing down the high street with blue lights flashing. Birchington is usually a very quiet village!
Margate Meltdown was also on, so loads of motor bikes up and down.
When I went to lunch Jack took nothing, not a penny on the till. It was looking good to tell HO it was a waste of time opening , then it got a bit busier, probably because we were the only charity shop open. Typical , in the last 10 minutes I took over £100! Looks as though they will make us open the next Bank holiday! Needless to say no one was working at Head Office!
