This starting a shoe shop business is certainly proving to get pretty involved. And there I was thinking it was just about visiting a couple of shoe fairs, perhaps thumbing through some catalogues at my leisure whilst sipping a restorative glass of pinot noir. I plan to open end of April (although realistically it will probably be around 1st of May) and I'm STILL waiting on my floor to go in, shelving to be installed, bits and pieces of furniture and another 512 fit-outish things that need to go into the shop. Of course, this doesn't even include all the other exciting things like phone lines, insurance, boring, boring, boring but absolutely, vitally essential to running a proper business. Sigh. Might have to put down the glossy Glamazon shoe images every now and again to deal with the other realities.
Although it has to be said - when you're doing it for yourself, when it's your very own 'baby', it just doesn't seem as bad as having to do it for someone else. I guess in this way it's just like a real baby. :-)
