Recently I bought a bundle of Leslie Thomas titles for just one of them so you can imagine how miffed I was to get a message from the seller to say he had found them all apart from one, the only one I really wanted! I settled for a full refund as I had all the others but if anyone can help with a copy or a scan of the back cover and date I would be very grateful. I have the front cover from the sellers listing and have added it to the page for X700 ‘This Time Next Week’
It’s always nice to come across a ‘new’ series and this time it was for ‘The Magic Road’ by Kevin Scally from 1984 of which there are four titles as far as I can ascertain. They are all hardback and a larger size and designed to be easily navigated by young children but I’m not so sure about that myself. I’ll get my 5 year old nephew to test them out next time he comes to visit. I’m still tempted to scan the whole book in and make the arrows ‘hot spots’ so you can do it online.
It’s getting easier to sit at the computer since the hip operation but not as easy to leap up and get a book or two from the library shelves when I need to scan them in. Hopefully I’ll be back to it soon. Oddly I was rung up last week by a district nurse to make an appointment to have my surgical clips removed. I later realised the date she had given me was five days too soon so I rang back on the same number to discover they had no record of me on their system and no date which was supposedly in their diary and in fact no referral to them from the hospital at all. I await to see what happens.
