About Me

Simon
Hello, in 2008, Tim West and I opened The Big Green Bookshop in Wood Green, North London. It was bloody brilliant. But, living in London is expensive and my girlfriend and I have two kids. So we have decided to move to the seaside and take The Big Green Bookshop online. Yes, it's terrifying and we have no idea what's going to happen, but we are 100% sure this is the right thing to do and we're going to work our socks off to make it work. I guess this blog is a kind of diary about our trials and tribulations. Hope you enjoy.
