The orders that perk us up in the long dark days of February.

Wave Guides (A Physics Textbook) - to CERN - the European Organization for Nuclear Research. Trying to figure out what went wrong!

A Victorian Book of Alphabets & Designs – to a Tattoo Palour


A Day in the Life of a Miner: This was one of a series published in the 1970’s & 80s for children. Lots of photographs of the real people and their families. This one was a particularly poignant snapshot of a Miner’s life, showing his wife and son (a little blond boy), the house, the car, the clothes, now looking so old fashioned –. We were quite touched when we realised that it was this little boy who was buying the book!
