    They have plastic see through sheets with flaps that the book slots into. Then they use a machine to cut and seal the top and bottom.

    In our staples they have some books with the covers on display on the Copy desk.

    I think if you were careful you could remove the book and reuse the cover :)
    thanks busylizzie :T
    i'll check it out at the weekend when DS2 has most of his books that will need covering :)
    i tried googling & found these fabric covers at staples too so might check them out too as different colours :)http://www.staples.co.uk/stretchable-fabric-book-cover/cbs/418399.html

    *creeps in two hours late*

    Good morning all, cloudy one here.

    Good luck bubbs :D

    I am having an email conversation with T at the moment. Dashed in with my cycle helmet on, didn't want to leave it on my bike as had one destroyed there when I left it on the bike.

    Anyway, security guard asked me to remove it. Complained by email, and they replied saying they don't like people wearing things covering their face (apart from religious reasons), I replied saying it didn't cover my face, they replied saying that it did however cover my head, but they upset me by misspelling my name, so I have now replied asking why they are discriminating against cyclists but would be quite happy for someone to wear a hiqab. I think I may be pushing it too far but I am fed up with them.

    Wonder if ayone actually got the £10 off as it was there from about 2.30am till 9am (ish)

    Submitting a receipt for processing wouldn't guarantee payment though

    I went march 2002, 6 months after 9/11. OH was working out there at the time, so took my 2 teenage kids out there to see him. Was waiting for a hip replacement at the time, so walking wasnt that great. all I remember is looking at the ground all the time while walking around and every now and then looking up and shocking myself at the sight of these tall buildings in my face:rotfl: Managed a few bus tours and boat tours, so managed to see most of NY :) Cheapest plane fare then was £220 return 12 years ago, so its amazing its even cheaper now what with fuel prices etc.

    Morning all, hope the op goes well bubbs x

    Had a bit of a manic week so far, dd1 is feeling better after her gallstones op but might still need the gallbladder out. She starts college this morning and GS is supposed to be in nursery but has taken a fierce dislike to it - screams the whole time. Am awaiting a call to go and pick him up if he gets really upset today, no car as OH in work so will have to brave the bus - not done buses for a long time :eek:

    Will be passing As so keeping an eye out for a good glitch to go and use my apg on :cool:

    In case I have to dash off, have a lovely day everyone :)

    Hope GS settles down, my DS got really upset when I took him to nursery but the tears apparently turned off as soon as I left! Maybe he just needs to know that someone is coming back to get him?
