Sir, After failing to obtain from several leading bookstores in the city a certain book which I wished to give as a Christmas present, I contacted Scribes (Booksellers), Main Street, Wicklow on December 20th, explaining my predicament. They had the required volume in stock and assured me that it would be posted immediately, despite the fact that it had not been paid for. Imagine my surprise and delight when it duly arrived the following day. Well done, Scribes Well done, P&T Yours, etc., Northcliff Heights, Skerries, Co Dublin.
