As an aside, and just to show I’m not a one trick pony, I am also a ranger for a disused railway line that is being repurposed as a walking\/cycling greenway. The first of four sections has been surfaced and an official opening ceremony took place. I was surprised to be asked to cut the ribbon it but this was probably because I have been doing management work on it since the last century. What they didn’t tell me, because of health and safety gone mad, they were kiddies scissors that wouldn’t cut a jelly hence the laughs all round!<\/span><\/p>\n\n

I recently picked up a couple of Canadian PAN editions, one with the same cover as the UK but printed in Canada, the other with a different cover also printed in Canada. What was interesting, well I though so, was that they both had green dyed page edges. The books are ‘Hungry as the Sea’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Wilbur Smith and ‘La Luna’<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a> by George Malko.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
