Book Barn
I'm just back from a trip to the Book Barn at Hallatrow, a small town 30 minutes drive from Bath. They have a million books. It's all second- or third-hand and nearly everything is a £1. A lot of dated stuff, but a fascinating place with everything from a Serbo-Croatian Grammar to The Naughtier Side of Rupert the Bear. With so much choice, naturally I came away without buying anything. I almost bought Swordfish Fencing for Beginners. That looked interesting. In one dark corner, I found Fourteen Things to do with a Paperclip. In the children's section, there was the cover only of Fartingdog Annual 1999. I wonder what ever became of that 90s masterpiece?
