As you all may know Dave is out of hospital now and at home. This coming Monday on BBC2 at 9pm is the start of the new series of hospital. They are mainly concentrating on the Royal Free and Barnet hospital dealing with COVID cases. I have been informed that David will be on episode 2.
It is very sad now to see the shop in its present state, it was a very much needed shop.

  Thanks, Terry, will watch out for it. I gather there were ideas of keeping some semblance of the shop going as a community shop - sad too that this is now out of the question.

Fond memories driving past or popping in to Dave's for a whats-a-name or a something or other. Always had a cheeky smile and story to share.

Godspeed David. We will chat about Liverpool once you're better.
I am pleased the shop will be opening again.

I can give you an update on David. He is still in ICU but he is making progress. He is off the critical list, still very poorly but stable. Anyone wishing to send get well cards please put them through the shop door and I will see that they get to the family.

Regards to all Terry, long time friend and occasional co-worker

  David's condition continues in the positive direction. He is free of COVID-19, but unfortunately has other complication arising from that. His family are really appreciative of the cards and well wishes for him and themselves. They are video calling him, but he finds it very tiring, so it is small steps to recovery, but a giant leap from where he was a couple of weeks ago. So very positive that David is a fighter and will get through this. Some people seem to have this virus with very mild symptoms, unfortunately David didn't along with a lot of others. So please take precautions to protect yourself and seriously think about what you are doing. Stay safe all.
  
  There will be further news on the shop in the next week
