New website, new blog

Towards the end of 2022, we launched our new website and along with it came our new blog. This means that after 15 years of Talking Shop, we will be archiving this blog and any new posts will be found on our website www.christianbookshopossett.co.uk.

Feel free to continue browsing through all the book reviews here on Talking Shop - we would hate 15 years of blogging to go to waste!

To be on or not to be on, that is the question that still exercises many people. And rightly so. How much of your private life do you want to open up, and is anybody interested anyway? However, I have set up a personal profile, which is not one that I utilise except for the purpose of being permitted thereby to operate a page for the Bookshop. This has been going for some time now, and both Lorna and I contribute almost daily. This blog feeds to it, but it is the day to day activities we mention there - news, humour, opinions, photos, book alerts etc. With our 'likes' increasing, more interaction is happening. Please consider liking us yourself if on facebook. You are not visible to anyone else but us! However, if you are not on, you can still view the page. We now have a clear cut web address to save to your favourites: www.facebook.com/christianbookshopossett

This is the Culprit...

Yep, this is the reason for a distinct lack of blogging in recent days. My dear old computer - the first one the shop ever had 'on site' - has finally come to the end of its useful life. Thankfully the transfer of most of our data has gone almost without a hitch, however we have had some difficulties adjusting to a new email program (I won't bore you with the details, but if anyone out there is an expert in Outlook, let me know!). This accounts for why those of you who receive e-shots from us won't have received your February one yet.

Just to let you know, our Feb offer is pretty tempting (cash back is hard to refuse!) If you spend over £25 on books you'll receive a nice fat fiver back. Check our events diary for more details.

If any of you don't receive e-shots from us and would like to keep abreast of our monthly promotions during our jubilee year - just email us and let us know.
