Wanted: TARGET Books!

[Si Hunt]

I've sent the money, you should have a notification now. I probably should have asked about the condition of the books, but I'm sure you would have mentioned if they wern't all at least okay!

Si.

[Lord President]

They're all in pretty good nick, just some fading on the spines of a few of them, they have been on the shelves for a few years! ;-)

PS - Just checked and the funds are there, many thanks.

[Lord President]

Just to let you know that I left Remembrance on the list by mistake too. Sorry for the oversight.

[Si Hunt]

That's ok, mistakes happen!

Do you, by any chance, have any of the books that we have but in very poor condition i.e

Earthshock
Day of the Daleks
The Invasion
The Tenth Planet
The Gunfighters
The Abominable Snowmen
The Web of Fear
Warriors Gate

If so, is there any chance you could chuck in a few of these to replace the books that you've discovered are missing since you did the list?

Alternatively, we haven't got "The Ultimate Evil" or "K9 and Company" so these would be welcome substitutions!

Si.

[Lord President]

I will send The Ultimate Evil and The Web of Fear to you under separate packaging, as the bulk are already sealed up for delivery! :-)

[Si Hunt]

Thanks!

Si.

[Dirk Gently]

The Smugglers is on its way, Si. You should have it in a day or so.

[Si Hunt]

Thanks Tim, you're a gent!

Si.

[Lord President]

There is a big box on its way to you first class, the two others are taped to the outside of the box. ;-)

[Si Hunt]

Brilliant, thank you very much! I'll keep a lookout!

Si.

[Andrew Curnow]

I've lost track of what ones you've now covered, but if you're short of any of the following you're welcome to them Si:

The Abominable Snowmen
Terror of the Autons
Invasion of the Dinosaurs

[Si Hunt]

That's very kind of you Andrew - we could do with copies of "Abominable Snowmen" and "Terror of the Autons", the former of which we have but it's falling apart!

Si.

[Andrew Curnow]

These are both 34/35 years old, but they're still in good nick! I'll get them posted off.

[Si Hunt]

Thanks Andrew!

Si.

[Si Hunt]

Lord President, the books have arrived, many thanks for your promptness and the excellent packaging!

I hope this doesn't sound too nitpicky, but there was one further book missing that was on the agreed list - "Attack of the Cybermen". On the offchance that you simply forgot to put it in the box and it's still kicking about, is there any chance you could pop it in the post at some point?

Si.

[Lord President]

I've no idea where my copy of Attack has gone, but my copy of Tenth Planet has turned up if you'd like that!

[Si Hunt]

I've actually already got a bid on a new copy going on Ebay now, so I'd better decline in case I win! Do you have reasonable quality copies of "Earthshock", "The Invasion" or "Warriors Gate" instead?

Si.

[Lord President]

My copy of Warriors' Gate is virtually mint and will be in the post to you in the next couple of days. ;-)

[Si Hunt]

Excellent, thanks!!

Si.

[Si Hunt]

And thanks to Andrew for the spare copies of "Terror" and "Abominable" he let us have, received safely this morning, cheers!

Si.

[Andrew Curnow]

Crikey that was quick, I only posted them at just before 6 last night! Glad to hear they're Down & Safe, Si - enjoy!

[Jonno]

I can't help as I only have one copy of each book in my collection, but I just wanted to say that reading this thread and seeing how so many people have helped Si and Simon has brought a smile to my face!

[Si Hunt]

To ours too! Thanks to the responses of PS-ers, we now unbelievably have almost a complete set, with just a few to collect (notably Power and Evil which seem elusive, and Attack and Remembrance) and a few more to 'upgrade' to better copies.

Thanks one and all!

Si.

Well you won't find Power & Evil in target form. They were never target'ed. They were novelised by Virgin in 1993 & look similar to the PDA of the same era.

I've got those, but they remain unread, along with 'Legacy' & 'War'.
