Small Business Saturday


Outside the Hay Loft, on the way up to the Castle.
When I first came to Hay, this was Five Star, which had been the military section of Richard Booth's bookshop (hence, Five Star General) and kept the nickname when it became the Science Fiction department. Vi was in charge - she never read a science fiction book in her life, but she knew what sold!
In those days, the entire building was one shop. Later the staircase was taken out and it was divided downstairs into what is now Greenaway Books and the new little gardening shop.
