Well bugger me sideways... Evidently one of the reference books that did make it to the standing order list is the brand spanking new 2010 edition of 'The Cab-Men of Huntingdonshire, volume A-E.' Well worth the price of thirty-one copies of 'The Beano Book' that Frog can't buy twenty copies of because the book fund's frozen.
I'm appalled that we ever bought this tome in the first place, let alone now in the current circumstances.

Is that a real book? Beachcomber (by the way)?
Was that 'Cab men' or 'Cave men'?
Sod's law says it'll be volume F - K that was the one everyone wanted...
Gosh! And to think that I was jolly cross when my late Grandad's biography, "Edgar Jessop - a TT Hero's Story" only made it to a few shelves!
Gadjo: you caught me! My naming the real title would be a bit dangerous at this moment in time (I could be persuaded to tell you on FB)
St Jude: given the nature of Huntingdonshire I expect they overlap somewhat.
Macy: Sod's Law or Professional Judgement...
Camilla: hello and welcome! The moral is to always publish in the first half of the financial year. ):
I was going to ask if it was cab as in taxi but I see you made it up - you tease!
Kevin, are you on Facebook? My "handle" there is the (silly and now regrettable) "Dr.Francis J. Chantree III" if you want to contact me, though I don't use it that much. The only Kevin Musgroves I can see there appear to be Americans - are you hiding something from us?
Pat: it's part of my boyish charm.
Gadjo: found you last week. (-;
Pat: it's part of my boyish charm.
Gadjo: I found you last week, under my nom de guerre.
