- If you're willing to fork out more bucks, there's a very good
- children's bookstore called Tiddley Pom on that street just
- behind the King Edward Hotel that begins with C... Ah, Colbourne,
- that's it. The owner (a wonderful woman who's read every blessed
- thing in the store, I swear) has the best collection of hard to
- find English books I've seen. I suspect she smuggles them in
- from trips.

- I've seen books from another of Blyton's series (something about
- girls in a school) there, too.
