    Borders on Cheshire Oaks, Ellesmere Port, was heaving today, but absolutely nothing of quality to be had aside from a few magazines. I didnt purchase anything.

    I went to the Borders store at Team Valley, Gateshead last night (Monday) it was busy but there was still a great deal of stock left. (it was 70 & 80% off then), wish I could have gone back today and got some more books.

    We bought about 12 books and spent about £33, very good value.

    My mum went to Teesside Park one today, absolutely rammed with people, but queue moving quickly, she got an armfull of books but said everyone was taking as much as they could carry so it was selling out very quickly.
