ouch, that is tough.
I hope someone can take over the local shop soon.
We are so sorry to hear about the shop and the hint of pain that lies behind the closure. It’s a small world, the lady’s grandmother is a memebr of our church here on the Costa del Sol and was one of our lunch guests yesterday. I wonder if she knows yet.
Apparently there was talk of there being some kind of community buyout the last time the shop was vacant. But it is a very big commitment. For any individual buying it, I would guess the financial rewards are not very big. But, we will keep on hoping and praying, not least for the hardship that appears to have caused it.
