 Britain's Rudest Shopkeeper? - Bromptonaut
I wonder if Legacylad knows Bloomindales bookshop in Hawes?

Proprietor is all over headlines today as Britain's Rudest Shopkeeper:

I knew Steve many years ago when he and I lived in London. Both of us met our respective wife/partner through the same outdoor group.

Met him again a couple of years ago. Can be a bit abrupt but I don't think he deserves the coverage, which looks like a local paper article gone viral, never mind the thoughtless crap people post 'below the line'.

Much ado about nothing i think. Must be countless people that aren't 'really a people person'. Mind you it keeps the local councillor type busy i suppose.
