Its a diary written by a baby JRT girly who goes to live with an accident-prone widower who has an eye for the ladies and flies helicopters! If you do spot it I would recommend getting it - lots of things I could identify as definitely being terrier traits... lots of chasing of small animals and annoying the older resident dogs :rolleyes: Mortimer Fish

If you want, I can post it to one of you (its only 30p, but as I control the franker at work I can do it for free!) then it can go on a TT relay... PM me if you're interested :D

Have read about 30 pages already very very funny and with some brilliant little line drawings,very tempted to copy some of those but of course working in a library I wouldn't dare copy anything that's copyrighted :ph43r: If anyone else wants it to be sent on pm me with your address. I think it was published privately which is why it's difficult to find in libraries.Thanks once again Claire looking forward to finishing it,probably tonight.
