Well after a lot of chatting on a previuos post we have decided to make our own library. We have come up with the idea if we swap a book with someone else then postage is covered. If you request to borrow a book then you must pay £1.45 for the postage (We still have to doublececk this cost - Royal mail website = :blink: ). Everyone will list their books below and if you would like to request one then pm the member.

Let the reading begin....... :book:
