	Not bad, Fly :-D Been to collect a load of books from a lady who is donating them to our Village Fete bookstall next weekend (being manned by yours truly!). There were masses of the things, stored in a big old wardrobe in her garage :-0

	MY stall, Fly! :-D :-D They look like women's popular novels and romances, so there probably won't be much :-D
