We were having a coffee in Gails in Windsor the other week and I noticed a little plaque on the wall (see picture above) Apparently HG Wells the famous Science Fiction author used to work in the same building, obvious not serving up Flat Whites, but as a draper's apprentice in 1880! It's quite a leap from drapers apprentice to science fiction writing, I wonder what inspired him to do that? It's amazing the amount of history that surrounds us every day on our little island!
