Ames, borders Uk has gone into administration, whereas Borders America is still going strong - they've got a functioning website. Yeah, as I can't wait to visit NY city again and spend hours browsing round the 3 floors of books.0

:hello: everyone....
seems the bug I had at christmas is doing the rounds...
Sally...stupid ebay people.....if its any consolation when i was ill at christmas with the sickness bug I also had a really bad back, I had to wear heat patches for three days so it could just be part of that.
I take loads of books on holiday with me...
Bookie...you are too good for tescos - no consolation I know...

I just read through the chat and there was loads I wanted to reply to but I have forgotten it all now...
Ames..I did the napster trial last night, I wanted the new Glee album....I managed to download one last night no problem. Tried to download the rest, and they came up with error whilst downloaded.....
Guess what...when I logged back into Napster they are marked as downloaded and they are nowhere to be found....
I have emailed napster and am waiting for a reply, they are a bit slow....might ring them tomorrow.Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

Hi Sammy
Ames you can get a return for about £300 although if you are really sneaky you can go lower - I paid £220 for mine last April but its a case of watching the prices every day like a hawk...0
