Spendling lots of money before breakfast
Oh the perils of the interweb. An email landed in my inbox from abebooks, offering various overpriced Chalet School books, and a hardback copy of Dorita Fairlie Bruce's The School in the Woods, for the low (!) price of £80 (the only other two hardback copies on there are nudging £400), I dithered for about two minutes, then my credit card came out and the deal was done. Now I just have to hope that the bookseller doesn't cancel the order. And if my finances aren't up to paying for it when the credit card bill comes in, I can always stick it on ebay, hopefully for a profit. But I'd really like to keep it.

I hope you can keep it! I'm happy with my GGBP copy - although I don't know whether to offload my Toby at Tibb's Cross in favour of a GGBP version (I still have 2 copies of Nanncy Calls the Tune because I couldn't decide there!)

Must be a lucky week - I bought the Tuck Shop Girl - I hope!

You shocker! Probably worth the buzz as well as the money and if you like it, keep it!

My attitude is that I'm far more likely to regret not buying books than buying them! Glad you got it! :-)
