Hello everyone, I don't suppose anyone has a copy of this book I could borrow for a few months or buy? I can't find a copy to buy anywhere and the one I keep...
I'd let you have my copy, but I've lent it to a friend who is on holiday. If you're still desperate in a couple of weeks give me a shout and I'll chase her up....
I have had a couple of copies through my hands but each one was expensive. According to my records I sold the last one to the USA for £48.00 There is...
Faye, there's definitely a copy at Newcastle University's library - perhaps not ideal, but maybe worth doing on an inter-library loan? I held on to it for...

Hi Sally  I don't think anybody on this group would even dream of throwing eggs or cabbages at you !! You say that you're limited re financial resources, and...
