Hi Jenny. Bridget Jones Diary by Helen Fielding, read by Tracie Bennet, Tracie emphasises as she speaks, like ooo, she goes high or low any books read by Tracie Bennet is a good talking book. Another is a good book called The Village Policeman, he was a fair policeman in the olden days, he caught a man stealing salmon from the river and because he knew the man had a large family to feed he let him off with a caution and let him take the salmon home to feed his hungry family, his sergeant told him that chickens were being stolen and when he caught the man with one chicken in a sack, he got told off by the sergeant for not catching him with more chickens, as the more chickens he had the more the constablery got from the court, something like one shilling per chicken, but it is funny and knowledgeable how the policeman lived and had to move to different police houses, how he caught the thieves and wrong doers and the ones he let off with cautions, his thoughts and actions. Hope you have a nice time on holiday and hope weather will be good for you. vanessa. -----Original Message----- From: Jenny Coupe - Email Address: jenny@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent On: 19/06/2012 13:23 Sent To: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx - Email Address: guide.chat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guiÔ¨de.chat] books Hi all. has anybody listened to a good story recently ?
