Some of our time was spent preparing for a typical Victorian market day. My son, Harry, and I were out the front selling goods to customers, while Debbie and daughter Saffron were out back doing chores such as blending tea, as they weren't allowed on the shop floor during opening hours. Seeing our family name above our Victorian shop for the very first time was extraordinary, and the shop itself was filled with both recognisable and unrecognisable goods: from sacks of flour to hair restorer tablets!

In a stroke Alice Auer found herself with as much time as she needed to reflect.
