The Race is on
The race is coming to a climax. NO, not that race. We don’t talk about politics in Monner’s Mumbling’s. I’m talking about the race to get out of our building before we need to pay another month’s rent. The move has been a complete family affair, not to mention all the help we have had from customers.
