TODAY OUR SALE BEGINS. We are having a big 'July summer Madness' 25% off all our stock sale starting today. Of course it is only available for stock bought on our own site at http://www.peakirkbooks.com because we can't afford to take 25% off stock on the other sites where we have to pay so much commission as well - we would then be trading at such a big loss. If you want to take advantage of buying our books at a 25% discount - between July 1st and July 31st 2011, simply go to our own site, and purchase, using the e code MAD007 in the coupon box at the checkout, and you will automatically get the discount. We specialise in children's collectable books, but there are lots of other books there too - 26,000 of them! It's worth a browse.

i MUST BE THE MOST USELESS BLOGGER THERE IS!
I wrote a lengthy account about going to the London Book Fair, meeting some customers I had never met in the flesh before - despite having had long e-mail relationships with, (you know who you are Eileen & Parizan) - and the rest of a long and tiring day - and managed to somehow lose the whole lot - except the title - see my last entry. I havent got the heart to write it all over again. Oh well - the life of a bookseller who is not technologically savvy, is an interesting, if exasperating one!

Paul O'Grady
Well done to Paul O'Grady - for moaning about his kindle! He promoted the book over the kindle which he said on his show, (see his interview with Miss Celia Imrie) had problems with both dirty finger prints, and it bringing up the dictionary when he 'turned the pages'. Well done Paul - there is nothing like curling up with a good book - a 'real' one!
Viola Bayley
Currently working on putting an article on Viola Bayley, written by a friend/customer, on our website. Interesting - especially as she has both written about her life and collated all her works including all her short stories, but it takes me ages to transmit it onto our site. I wish I was more computer literate!!!!! When I have finished this one, I have one to do on Kathleen O'Farrell that her daughter kindly wrote with her mothers input.
