While President Obama may have been a no-show at Bunch of Grapes Bookstore during his Martha's Vineyard vacation last month, U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron made a point to visit his favorite local bookseller, Jaffe & Neale Bookshop and Cafe in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, on Saturday to help launch the Books Are My Bag campaign, the Telegraph reported.

"Samantha and David are customers. We always try and treat them like we treat everyone else," said co-owner Patrick Neale, who is also president of the Booksellers Association. "It was like any other Saturday. David and Samantha come in, have a coffee and a cake and buy a book. They are pretty regular customers. We are their local bookshop."
