CORONAVIRUS & J BROWN NEWSAGENTS

Dear Friend and Customer

As always, our aim as a newsagent is to provide the highest standard of customer service as possible but due to unprecedented circumstances the service may have to change on a daily basis as directed by the Government and health officials.

We will continue to strive to offer the best possible service with home newspaper deliveries but delivery times may alter due to staffing levels and other commitments or changes with advice from the Government. Please be patient during this difficult time.

We will advise you of any changes to our service on our brand-new website www.jbrownnews.com. On our homepage you will find daily alerts about our service.

If you wish to pay your bill this can be done by registering on our website. Once registered you can request your bill and pay by “faster payment” through your online bank account. Our bank details will be shown on the bill. Alternatively, if we are open, payment can be made by payment card over the phone.

We may have to change our store opening times in order to make deliveries in the morning. If this happens any changes will be notified on our website or on Facebook.

If we need to close due to self isolation or advice from officials this information will be on our website, Facebook and our answering machine.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can be of any further assistance.

We wish you and your family safe and healthy times ahead.

Best wishes

From James and all at J Brown Newsagents

PRESTWICK folk, want to know a few things about your town in 1898?
My great grandfather, made several interesting comments about life here, more than a hundred years ago!😉
Today's discovery about the wonders of the internet..... I've just discovered: the article which was in Ayrshire Post newspaper last week (21 Oct 2020) is available on the internet too :-) So if you missed it, here's the link (it took quite a while to load, so feel free to go and make a cuppa while you wait if you experience this too) https://www.pressreader.com/uk/ayrshire-post/20201021/281736976939297

J Brown Newsagents at The Cross, Prestwick KA9 1AJ is also stocking the book now, if you want to buy one

PLEASE SHARE this news update :-)
Thrilled Ayrshire Post included an article about my book ‘From Sri Lanka with love, a tapestry of travel tales’. Page 12 in 21 October. Information not included - book available at J Brown Newsagents Prestwick Cross also :-) As ever, if you share, that would be brilliant
Please share if you can :-)

Feedback so far has been positive, with people telling me they feel they are on holiday with us (which was my aim), enjoying moments of humour and cringing at other experiences we've been through.

I've put together three short videos of our time in Udawalawe National Safari Park, Sri Lanka, so if you haven't seen them, here are the links:

Part 1: Arrival and some wildlife https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2719454221629448
Part 2: Jeeps - not for the faint hearted https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=495002881460167
Part 3: The wonderful elephants https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=976254326229424

I recount about our time in the safari park in the book (more info at https://www.facebook.com/MargaretLMooreAuthor )

Hope you enjoy the videos 🙂
