    If the others don't go I'd gladly take all of them off your hands to pass on again once I've read them

  • pedal please!

  • Dibs the lonely planet one!

  • I'll take 'The Hour' if stevo_com thinks he's overreaching with 3 :)

    ... or after he's finished with it.

  • BMMF: work away, I'll be more than happy with the other two

  • Yellow Tour De France please!

  • Stevo; Please can I borrow the Flying Scotsman when you're done. I have also only seen the film.
    Cheers

  • stevo_com: cheers - you can have first dibs if you want when I've finished it.

    Oh yeah - thanks jonny! A clandestine Bloomsbury exchange beckons...

  • Are any of them colouring in books?

  • BMMF: sure thing
    George: Just remind me in a while and again, sure thing

  • Are any of them colouring in books?

    you can colour in any book

  • have updated the top. still a couple for grabs. will sort drop offs at various drinks, at work central etc

  • Are any of them colouring in books?

    Only 'The Escaped Artist'.

  • @jonny - yeah, it fits my plans for this year, and I've had the pleasure of both being his minute-man in a 7km TT (held him off for 5 - he set the course record), and actually beating him in a hillclimb (I saw him step off the bike at the end and start chatting leisurely with friends - I went 30something seconds faster a bit later on, was lifted off the bike by officials, and then offered oxygen).

  • jonny i'll take the remaining lance book off you if no-one else is interested. thanks a lot, most kind of you.

  • Superprecise, that is all yours dude.

    Just Matt Seaton's book to go l's and g's. it's a decent read.

  • if anyone wants another copy of the escape artist, i've got one. it's a fine summer vacation-type book.

  • Jonny I'll take The Escape Artist - Matt Seaton please.

  • i've got another copy of the escape artist going if anyone wants it.

  • Jonny, if noone takes it by monday, bring it along to Souths and I'll nab it. All to be passed on again when I'm done you understand.

  • there you go, slow typing

  • woohoo ok jonny i'll pm you

  • The Escape Artist - Harry Houdini - Man goes in box, wife locks box, man in box gets buried, man dies.
    dibs... not sure if its worth reading now or NSIIWRN. thanks anyway.
