And this place is going to get incredibly busy round then too...</HTML>

<HTML>Jon, if you get bored at work, try adding me to MSN Messenger. You can find me on sarahlovescats@hotmail.com, and I'm normally online between (roughly) 11 am and 1 pm - sometimes other times of day too, depending on what's going on. Weird conversation guaranteed!</HTML>

<HTML>I work for Books etc, Publishers give us proofs.
It's brilliant coz i get to read the books before they come out, and it's bad coz then i have longer to wait till the next ones!</HTML>

<HTML>My god I'm in the wrong job .... if I could read all the books in proof I wouldn't have to pay for them, and the saving of money would mean I take a wage cut and still but that Aston Martin I always wanted ...</HTML>

<HTML>i know! it's brilliant, yesterday I spent £86 in Borders (including presents and DVD's), but before then I hadn't bought books since before the Summer
:-)

It was good working in the shop, but head office is even better... but it's the only perk we get, with the crap salary they have to compensate.</HTML>

<HTML>That's true. But it looks OK on the grey. Not so good on white, I must admit.</HTML>
