He LOVES it. Your shop was something else. I frequent toy shops (2 kids, 2 and 6 yrs) and enjoy poking into new-found gems. Portsmouth in general was terrific -- I thoroughly enjoyed walking around and seeing things. I just wish it hadn't been so rainy!

I still think your work sounds facinating! Although my job is pretty fun too - I get to meet interesting people (like you) and work in a very fun store in beautiful Portsmouth. The picture of the store front in the lamplight is wonderful by the way. Hope your son loves his lobster! Karin Scott G. Willikers! Toyshop Hi Nathalie

It's always fun on summer nights at our store. People seem ready to play. Many couples out on a date can't help but wander in and pick up something for their kids. I love the photo you took. We recently freshened up the front of the store with a brighter green, and it looks so nice in the lamplight! We are a family owned second generation business, and have enjoyed being on Market St. for 31 years! Sincerely, Jody Breneman Co-Owner G.Willikers Toy Shop! "Family Fun, Family Run Since 1978!"
