Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Baroness, if you're sticking with Dick Francis I have all of them up to middle 80s at least - can post them down if you promise to return them! I undertook upgrading my father's paperbacks to the hardbacks, and have the originals here as a consequence. Let me know!

Wow thanks bebop that's an incredibly kind offer. I am quite enjoying the searching at the moment but I suspect there will be one or two that completely elude me and then I may well take you up on that. I would of course look after them and return them - I may even be able to send you some of the later ones too if you were looking to build a complete set?

I'll keep looking and reading those I already have in the meantime but may come back to you in a few weeks if that would be OK? Thank you so much again for offering. :-)

Ugh, there was a horrid bit in the Piers Paul Read book last night, not for the squeamish! The main character is a psychopath. All very odd though it's still good somehow.

No problems, Baroness - I'll check the date of the most recent so you know what's available. Thanks for the offer of the later ones, but my parents have the complete works so I can always borrow one if I want to re-read. :-)
