Our "Office-away-from-home"

Iain, working on his summer school work at our desk :-) in Miss Lily's Cafe. Complete with excellent coffee ... in our case 60% spring water decaf and 40% "Sleeping Woman", a LOVELY Guatamalan coffee.

This morning there were two other tables set up as home offices. They are very supportive of business loiterers, supplying an outlet per table and free coffee refills (unadvertised benefit to business people; Pictonites, just ask if you're there with your laptop!)

The doorway through to "Books & Company" the new Picton bookstore; better than Chapters and Barnes and Noble combined. Not quite the volume of stock, but lovely leather couches and chairs for all, not to mention "Miss Lily", the cat, who wanders around keeping an eye on things. Because this store was a merger between Books on the Bay and Olivia's Fine used books, they provide an unparallelled selection of new, vintage and OOP books.


This is what Iain is doing while I work.


Ack. Forgot to grab a photo of Miss Lily herself. Next time :-).
