Just had someone come in and tell me that my window display is crap.  “I go passed on the bus most days and your window display is really disappointing and drab” “ohh well because we are a small shop not many manufactures send us any point of sale” “well you have 4 bags in it” “yes that was the last stuff I was sent some beach bags with logos on, so I filled them with boxes and there’s the little bench” “well its drab” “well ok its been there for about 6 months but ive not got anything else to put in the window” “ive got this book. Its pictures of Aldershot in the 40’s and 50’s where this shop is used to be a bit of grass with a bullet proof car on. You could pay 6 old pence to sit in it”  (starts showing me pictures in the book) “right” “do you want to borrow the book?” “oh no its ok. Ill just scan the pictures to show my boss” (I go out back and pretend) “so what about your window then?” “well what do you sagest?” “you could go to the counsel and get lost of old photos of Aldershot and put them on display in your window and they will probably give you some pot plants” “ right ill bare that in mind, thanks for popping in” “well if you want me to show you anymore books let me know”
