FOUR GREAT NEW BOOKS FOR YOU TO BUY - GOING CHEAP...

Beano Annual 2021 - Dennis's 70th...

WHS are selling two Annuals for a tenner at the moment, and though they might be cheaper elsewhere (and will get even cheaper on the run-up to the New Year), I decided to grab them while they were readily available so that I don't have to hunt them down later in different shops like I did last year.  There's an anniversary theme in two of them, as it'll be 70 years since Dennis The Menace first appeared in The Beano back in 1951, and Rupert Bear will be 100 years old tomorrow (Sunday).

If you were to buy these books at the publishers' prices, you'd pay a whopping £48.96, whereas if you buy them in WHS, you'll pay only £20 for all four.  What's not to like?  Anyway, get yourself along to the shops tomorrow (if you're allowed, and if they're open) and buy yourself a lovely Christmas present.  Or I suppose you could always purchase them for some friends or relatives if you prefer, but I'm not that generous.  These four beauties are for me! 

(Incidentally, if you only want The Beano book, it can be had for a mere £2.99 from Home Bargains.)

SATURDAY'S BABE Of The DAY...

The Wondrous Lynda Carter...


Lynda Carter popped in for a
visit yesterday, so I invited her to stay
overnight and made her very welcome in
the 'guest room'.  That reminds me, I'd better
take her some breakfast as she'll doubtless be
ravenous after all the energy she exerted trying
to slip out of her chains.  Dunno why, as they
were only to ensure that she was comfortable.
Anyway, nice of her to dress in her Wonder
Woman costume.  (Or  did I dress her
 like that?  Can't quite recall.)
