We have friends we'd never met, Americans who moved to England 20 years ago and opened a magical (no exaggeration) bookstore in Alfriston called Much Ado Books. We dropped in yesterday and had a MOST wonderful afternoon visiting. Some bookstores have a cat, they have a chicken.💖

Another beautiful day in East Sussex!

Our first meet in person since #lockdown ! Can. Not. Wait. In #Sussex and Much Ado Books - couldn't ask for more!

Treasures from our Bloomsbury memory box. We were fascinated to see on the poster for the first-ever Charleston Festival that the focus was ‘Bloomsbury Looks East - A Week of Exploring Past Links and Present-day Parallels Between Bloomsbury and Eastern Europe and Russia’.

We were thrilled to meet author Michael Morpurgo, who stopped in the shop on his way to Charleston Festival. Thanks for stopping in Michael Morpugo - you can come and practice signing books any time!
