Q: How do booksellers celebrate winning the title "New Zealand Bookshop of the Year 2014"?

A: We do it very well indeed!
Here's a few photos from our fabulous evening out at Styx restaurant last night:

Tim, Ann and Marie

It was Lucy's last evening out with us, with  baby #2 now imminent.

Although she was a tad sad when Stella made her hand back her shop keys! We'll miss you Lucy!

Sarah, Susi and Peter

Stella and Thomas (who claims he IS smiling in the photo!)

Susi, Peter, Lynn and Lucy

We tried to catch Jan without a camera in hand

A happy match: Peter the bookseller poses with Bookbinders Brew (no, he'd not overindulged, it was just a happy evening).

Not one to be outdone,  Stella opted to pose with two (no, she'd not overindulged either, it was just a happy evening).

 

We ended the evening with a farewell presentation to our Tim and Susi..
