PoppyBees weekend

Well that has been a great weekend and I'm not referring to the turnover.

It been hit and miss in terms of customer footfall.  Friday afternoon we happened t open open as I had an unexpected day off work so opened 1230 - 1530. It was quiet up to 13:30 then we had three or four people come in together followed by a a bit of a rush just before closing.
Saturday was relatively quiet all day but this was true for the Village shop too, unusually so we take some solace from that. And, Sunday was steady but saw the biggest sale of the weekend to my friend Lesley from the Barnsley Harriers running club.

Lesley promptly posted on our Facebook page, commenting on how excited she was with the three pairs of shoes, a necklace and a bracelet she had bought. Her husband was similarly excited by the surprisingly small amount on the receipt. Thanks Lesley!

I have been grateful of the quiet times too as I have just joined a local business group and the amount of stuff I have been researching and digesting, not to mention streamlining and updating my online presence/social media has been enormous.

Oh well that's going to take care of all my spare time for the rest of this week and beyond. Lets hope all this hard work pays off!
