So do you scan the book actually at the library, David?

I usually do this if there is something I particularly wish to read, and it is not available elsewhere. Just out of interest, I thought I would tell you about my current scan. It is a Maggie O'Farrell book called "Instructions for a heatwave". I cannot tell you much about it as I only brought it home from the library today, but if anyone wants the book once it is scanned, I can either attach it to an email and forward to the list, or send it to individuals who request it. Trish may be interested to know that I found a Dorothy Koomson book which has not, so far as I know, been made available. I will tell you more about that when I put it on the scanner. Talking of Dorothy Koomson reminds me that I was amazed to learn from her Woman's Hour interview that, in the TV version of "The Ice Cream Girls", they have changed the murderer. Why should anyone want to do that? Koomson did sound like the kind of lady you could sit down with and have a cup of tea. Rather homely and definitely the mothering type. David
