    Have managed to read the missing ones yet Lori?

    I've also checked out the audio book section on the Library site, they have quite a few there by the same author...just not the missing ones that I want.

    I can't fathom out why a a big county library hasn't made sure that they have the complete series in the first place....it's beyond comprehension!!:mute:

      What used to be an enjoyable scissor cut experience and chat
      We now have a glut of Turkish barbers, who for a price offer a head shave
      of number 1/2/4/8/10 mm
      If I wanted that then I would go buy myself a self cut machine not pay £20 a go
      for some Turk to auto cut my head
      I want a short back and sides scissor cut

          I hope that was a joke @pete.

          No @Upsydaisy it is a very old series and I've looked for it at garage sales, everywhere, but no luck.

            Oh thats a shame Lori.:sad:
            Have to say I've lost the incentive somewhat to carry on reading the series now . I might carry on and try to piece together the missing chunks of storyline.:dunno:

              Not a joke @CanadianLori singeing hair is an old traditional method. :noidea: It was stopped being a service here about 60 years ago. With lots of Turkish barber shops opening up here the practice has started again as it's still popular in Turkey. I still have a large box of tapers in the cupboard.

                Is it possible for you to download them from Amazon @Upsydaisy ? I realise you'd have to pay but at least it would complete the series.

                  The tapers come in handy as the automatic lighter on the grill on our cooker stopped working some years ago and there are no spare parts. One taper lasts about six months.

                    We seem to be having lots of cars coming out to our very quite lane and the humans inside are getting their fix and then throwing out the plastic bags, after you've had your fix can you take home your plastic bags and recycle them please

                            Not sure on the scrap value Jiffy, they always remind me of those co2 bulbs I used on Watney party 7s back in the 70s.

                              I wish that idiot with the top hat would get a proper job.
                              I'm fed up seeing him in the background every time they interview someone outside parliament.
                              I think at least they have stopped him shouting all the time.

                                I cannot figure out why the big curfuffle over Boris and a few beers. Our guy got caught twice now interfering with federal court cases, the WE scandal where his relatives and cabinet ministers received money/freebies, and amongst a bunch of other stuff, he declared a national emergency over truckers in hot tubs. He's got our RCMP greeting illegals coming up from the states into Quebec and now since there are so many, he's housing them in places like Niagara Falls and other tourist locations! He did black face half a dozen times and praised the communists including China and Cuba. And he declared he could spend spend spend because everyone knows "budgets balance themselves"!

                                And you guys are on about some beer parties? Moan over.... :biggrin:
