The (Weekday Trading) Times They Are a-Changin'

.
What's the time "Bob"?
.
Bob Dylan's impassioned lyrical protest in the 1964 release of "The Times They Are a-Changin' " is world-renowned; however, a little-known fact about the song is that he actually started writing it as an advertisement for the proposed changes to the weekday trading times of Salamander Bay Recycling.
.
The original song title of "The Weekday Trading Times of Salamander Bay Recycling Are a-Changin'" was altered late 1963 and the lyrics reworked in a flagrant attempt by Dylan to financially capitalise on the civil rights movement in '60s America.
.
We may have been disappointed that Dylan reneged on his agreement to write a radio advert for Salamander Bay Recycling but we have not let this deter us from our ultimate goal: to open longer hours for your convenience.
.
So, come gather round people wherever you roam; after 46 (long) years of failed Supreme Court legal battles and personal recriminations, we are proud to advise that the Centre's weekday trade has been extended by 2 hours, to a new and very shiny 5.00pm finish.
.
Please heed the call: "The Weekday Trading Times of Salamander Bay Recycling (really) Are a-Changin'".
.
Thanks for nothin' "Bob"... (or as you are known around these parts: Robert Allen Zimmerman).
.
(New and shiny) Trading Hours:
.
Monday - Friday: 9.00am - 5.00pm
.
Saturday: 9.00am - 2.00pm
.
Sunday: 9.00am - 2.30pm
