I apologise for my tardiness in writing blog entries this year. It's been a busy year so far and I probably haven't spent enough time on this blog or PizGloria.com.
I did however visit the City a couple of weeks ago with my wife.
We visited a few stores (including the book stores shown below), had a fantastic Japanese dinner at Fed Square and then attended a stage play version of "North By Northwest". And I have to say the stage play was brilliant. I wondered how they were going to do the Mt. Rushmore scenes, the train, the crop duster biplane and the corn fields... and yet they pulled it off remarkably well. If you ever get a chance you have to see this stage show !
Alright, getting back to the book hunt. As usual we visited City Basement Books. Not as many Bond books as usual which is actually a good sign as it means they're making sales. Looking forward to visiting this store again soon.
We then visited Dymocks. I was after copies of the Charlie Higson "Young Bonds" with the new Young Bond logo but I already had the copies on the shelf.
Next up we visited Fed Square where the Saturday Book Market was being held. We both had a look but neither of us found a single Bond novel which was unusual. Previously there were always plenty of ex-library hard backs for sale.
Finally we visited Hill Of Content and then The Paperback Store but alas there were no Bond books on my wanted list. So instead we returned to the Arts Centre where we settled down to watch the aforementioned stage play.
