Mr. Books shop is a Sebo!...

As a PS to that last post about my new Brazilian/Italian, restaurant manager of ASK in Tonbridge, chum he paid me a great complement by saying that Mr. Books is a Sebo. No he didn't mean that it looked like a German vacuum cleaner (although Lord knows it could do with a good going over with one!) No, apparently the word is Portuguese, mainly used in Brazil, and means a lovely place to find antique things and especially books. I suppose the nearest thing we might say in English is that it's a fabulous Aladdin's Cave, a treasure trove. Now you can't complain about that description can you!...
