Newsagents Near You.
What is your local Newsagent like. I've got 2 near me and a Spar store which sell papers.
1 by me are really quite slow at getting papers on to the shelves.
The other 1 is very quick at getting papers onto the shelves, plus the chap who works there is well into 70s and on a walking stick.
I love going into my Spar store, the staff are really friendly.

The nearest newsagaent to me is the local petrol station up the road. I never buy newspaper so I don't know how well stocked they are.
It's not enough to be a newsagent anymore. Most of them are small corner shops. I preferred them when they were pokey little holes selling newspapers, magazines, greeting cards, and crappy toys and you the only food & drink you could buy would be crisps, chocolate/sweets and pop.
I don't go in there anymore.
He could never give the right change ...
Then they sold it......when they left, I left. I was asked to go and work for one day with the new owners while a wife and newborn baby were being brought down from the London hospital.
The man I worked with was the slimiest, grimiest, smarmiest..I can't think of anymore words right now! But he was NOT a nice man, and as I was 40+ then, I was more than able to take care of myself! But he was just revolting. It was confirmed when they had been in the shop a while, and I found out that kids and adults alike were calling him "the pervert". He is only one of the two owners, the man and wife being really nice people apparently.
But I've never set foot in the place since the day I worked with them, which is at least 5 years ago now.
I have in fact just started a thread about a charming incident that happened in my local one just 5 mins ago.
I really appreciate the service they offer and they are integral to the community in our small village. The guy who runs it also runs the post office as his late father had done in the village for over 80 years.
