STAFF at a much-loved angling superstore have been thrilled to welcome customers back to their shop today.

Dave's of Middlewich reopened in Lewin Street this morning.

Managing director Ann Costello, whose dad Dave founded the business 42 years ago, said: "Since it was announced that people could start to go fishing again I have been running a car park order and collection service and have been working on my own.

"As you can imagine it has been manic. Weeks of being closed and then offering the car park service have certainly been testing times.

"All of my staff and customers cannot wait to get back to some sort of normal. Customers are definitely excited to be able to come back into store so that they can look and choose what they need."

Ann has been overwhelmed
