(This has nothing to do with prophecy
but I watched it and thought it was
good)
FOREVER YOUNG!
At this time of year, business is usually
steady rather than spectacular at the
Hafod Hardware store in the Welsh
town of Rhayader.
People pop in to buy nails, screws,
perhaps a replacement mophead, a
mousetrap or a pot of paint to spruce
up their homes for the festive period.
But this week it has been rather busier
for Thomas Lewis Jones and Pauline
Lewis, the shop’s grandson and
grandmother team.
A two-minute Christmas video advertising
the traditional ironmongers on East
Street starring Jones’s two-year-old son,
Arthur has gone viral.
More than a million people worldwide
have viewed the film, and the phone has
been ringing continuously with people
keen to explain how much it touched them.
“I think it has struck a chord because it’s
such a simple message,” said Jones. “It’s
real and it’s not saying: ‘Spend, spend,
spend.’ I think you can tell it’s made by
people who care about this business.”
The plot of the Hafod Hardware film is
not complicated. Arthur wakes up,
brushes his teeth, eats breakfast and
heads to the shop. He serves customers,
decorates a Christmas tree – and in the
final shot magically turns into his
30-year-old dad.
