Memories discovered!

Soooo we are almost, almost ready to open the doors. Our launch day on Saturday is going to be very special. We have the fabulous Gramophone DJs playing vintage classics between 11am and 2pm and also Vintage Tinsel coming along to do some 1940s style up-do's for the ladies. There will be sweets treats, giveaways, competitions and goody bags for our first ten customers! We also have (weather pending) two Austin Seven Tourers coming, it's all coming together :-)
Everyone is being very kind with their donations and we have discovered some lovely things hidden in the pages of old books. I discovered not one but two four leaf clovers in an old Agatha Christie hardback, I think that's definitely a good luck symbol for the shop and me! Even more intriguing is a letter from 1943 found in a copy of Charlotte Bronte's Villette from a young soldier called Bob ( no Blackadder references please ;-) )  talking about his life in the army. He'd been in the army for two years and claims to have spent most of his time so far going to the cinema, dancing and flirting! We hope the rest of his time as a soldier was so peaceful!   We're going to try to do a bit of research and perhaps find out what did happen to him!
Hope you can all make it to the launch, we're all really looking forward to showing off all our lovely bits and bobs. Bye for now LostandFoundLass xoxoxo
