A Time of Magic

Not so long ago the gifts that we could choose from were those stocked in the local shops and if you were anywhere at all remote or even in a small town that was very limited.

Nowadays it’s all changed of course. Not only is the largest bookshop in the world available to all of us but we can choose gift baskets which would put to shame any that were available even just ten years ago and would have truly amazed our grandparents both in terms of the range that you can choose from and the price which, despite years of inflation, has barely shifted the price of a wide range of products available online.

Of course, it’s that much greater market that is both increasing our choice and driving down the prices. Who’d have thought 20 years back that to buy a CD you’d use a shop that was based over 1000 miles away from you?
