Shopping

The Kenny family had a bookstore in a beautiful old building in the city centre. When they closed that down to move to a warehouse in an industrial park, everyone thought, "what a shame". Well they transformed that warehouse into the most wonderful trove of books and art. Go in wander around, get lost in the labyrinth.
