Are you ready? Ready for what? Ready for St Piran's Day or ready for the new virus, perhaps. This bookshop is ready. The owner is a specialist in second-hand (used) books, especially Cornish books. He has put the Cornish flag in his shop window - white and black - a white cross on a black background. There's another shop that's ready for an epidemic. "Come in and wash your hands for free", says a notice in their window. And go into Lily's, Pydar Street in Truro. They will say, "Come in and say 'happy St Piran's Day' to get 10% discount."
