Noooo, I'm not buying anything that has its pages stuck together with jam! Actually, I never buy a programme anyway. I've got far too big a collection already without adding more weight to it. Anyone know where I can sell my programme collection? http://www.barnsleyfc.co.uk/news/article/grab-your-jam-packed-edition-of-be-red-today-2761962.aspx
Oh I do, but I prefer it on a home made scone rather than inside a magazine. Best in the country (well, last time I went it was) is Pollys Tea Rooms in Marlborough. Great chunky scones, a bowl of home made strawberry jam and a bowl of whipped cream. Just fantastic and a nice place to eat it on a winter's afternoon. First time I went there Carol Drinkwater was sitting in the corner reading a book over her afternoon tea. Was already drooling over my scones but that put the icing on top!
Forgot to say, I am talking mid-1980s when she was either still in All Creatures, or had just left it. Biggest mistake James made getting rid of her and bringing the Oxo lady in instead!
