Just want to recommend this book, as I know it's now available in paperback. They've got it at the reception desk at the Wirral Museum, Hamilton Square. I think it's £3.50.

I'm sure someone will get it & send it to you. Payment would be easy enough with PayPal. Incidentally, I'm sure I saw it at Wirral Museum for £3.50. Should cost about £3 to send airmail. If I were local, I'd do it.

Cheers, Chris.

Thanks guys, but I got one from Wirral Globe. They have a fairly good range of books, so I might get a few more down the track. thumbsup

Cheers
