When @maryportasofficial met @shopbudleigh!

One of the things we do in Budleigh Salterton as small business owners is try to collaborate; we can gather much greater momentum together.

Being a small business on an often quiet High Street is hard, but if Mary knows her onions (and we KNOW Mary knows her onions) the High Street isn't as dead as much of the press would have us believe.

The sense of community Mary talks about is EXACTLY what we see on Budleigh High St, day in, day out.

People (of all ages) pop in to The Treasury for a chat. One lady jokes every day if I'm late, or if she's late to collect her morning paper - at the very least we wave to each other every day. People stop and talk to me about the flowers in the pots outside. THIS. Community.

For some folk they may not have too many interactions during a day, and so having a lively welcoming High St is potentially a lifeline and must be cherished.
That said, not cherished like a best tea set. Or a posh frock. Not like a relic. More, cherished like your favourite jeans, or a favourite mug, embedded quietly within your daily routine. And we can't just rest on our laurels whilst asking why people aren't supporting us more...we as traders have a responsibility to be available to our customers, to be useful and to add value to our community!!

That is all.
Be more Mary🤣

Apparently I should have an introduction of some sort pinned to the top of my grid. So, apologies 🤣 but here it is.

After a lovely long lunch together on Saturday, we dropped this one at Uni yesterday. (The one in the cap, not the dog).
Lots of my friends have messaged to ask how it went. Answer: everything, everywhere all at once!
🦚 Pride, to have watched him create this opportunity entirely off his own back.
🥳 Excitement, for the potential, the fun, and the friendships you forge at that stage in your life.
(😭 And honestly, sadness here being at home without him and his noisy, annoying, fabulous presence).
We got back last night and I opened my birthday cards and pressies from my very kind friends and family..honestly a slightly odd birthday for me this year- and tomorrow our youngest son turns 18!😱😭
Doesn't time fly when you're having fun?!

Last Saturday, this little pink gift shop was buzzing, and non-stop. Happy days.

This Saturday, by comparison, takings were down by 80%.

Now there are a few things I know I can partially attribute this to. But the whole darn thing of running a shop here is just SO RANDOM! Is it like that everywhere at the moment?

Does anyone have any wisdom for me?!
