Journal Entry 9 by Sunnybubble from Wallasey, Merseyside United Kingdom on Saturday, December 17, 2005
REceived this a couple of days ago, sorry for the delay in journalling. I'm unlikely to get it back out until after christmas, and I think with the Christmas post it might be safer. I also want to have some peace to read the journal entries and add my own...Thanks for sending it on xxxx
Sorry for keeping this so long, but Xmas got in the way!!
It'll be going out on Tuesday to Redhouse.
Anyway I'm taking out:
The Nudist on the Late Shift
Twisted
Wicked Women
and I'm putting in:
The Truth about Cats and Dogs
Morse's Greatest Mystery
9th & 13th
The Copper Peacock
Three Blind Mice and Other Stories
Mr Wrong ( Not sure if this one counts, but it is a short story)
Thanks for a great box xxx
