The 9th Holiday Book

Olivia · Post by **Olivia** » 15 Jul 2006, 12:36

I am looking for a copy of the above book, I think published in 1954. If there is anyone out there who has a copy I could buy I would be very grateful. Thank you

Hi Olivia.
Theres one for sale on eBay under Ninth holiday book instead of 9th.

Item no' 330006029995 ending late tommorow.
Although you should be aware that of 369 feedbacks from Buyers this seller has been given 6 negative and 5 neutral. Not sure how others feel about feedback ratings, my own opinion is to look and see what they are for.
There would prob be another copy come up for sale at some point though if this one was not suitable.

Hope that helps.

Hi Raci, how kind, will look and take note of what you say, new at all this ebaying and Blytoning but have a funny feeling it may well get out of hand - thanks for your interest and reply. Kind regards

Its so easy to get carried away on eBay buying books, I spent way too much when I first discovered it

My best piece of advice would be check the quality carefully as there will always be another copy available at some point.

If I can help any more just ask.

Yeah, Raci's right. It is so easy to get carried away. Just a click with the old right finger, and there's another wad of sheets gone!

I did look at the link, and thought the seller gave off a rather aggresive aura....just a gut feeling though.

What a wide thread this is, I guess it's due to the long URL! Try tinyURL, it does shrink down long URLs to a better size!

I thought that when I came back to it. But I'm not sure what you mean

Is there some easier way for me to post a link to a page? I assume thats what URL is

I see a button at the top of this reply that says URL is this something to do with it?

Well life would be boring if we didn't learn something new each day

Go to:

Type the full URL (address) into the box, click on [make tiny url], and lo and behold, you will have a new URL, much shorter!

For example, the ebay link would be:

Thanks Nigel

Well I edited my post above with the new link and that was why the thread was so wide - its back to normal now
