"Crack The Code Next Year!"


On Saturday, Friends of Lit Fest held a bustling Book Swap at Town Hall Square. This is an annual event, when money is raised for Book Aid International ...while at the same time, passers-by and Saturday shoppers learn plenty about the coming Festival. This year was chilly but dry; we had lots of visitors, lots of interest, lots of chat... and some of us now have a pile of extra books tottering beningly besides our beds.

And ALL kinds of books tumbled in on Saturday....ranging from academic literary criticism to cook books, art books, poetry books, hobby books galore....to Best Seller Chart Toppers and literary paperbacks...to childrens picture books and children's comic strips...but Dan Brown's " Da Vinci Code" appeared most often....it seems 8 copies were spotted ( lingering mysteriously on our stall) all at one time...
Come Next Year!

But that is so dangerous - you think you might get rid of some books but you come home with more than you brought would be my guess!

All right, what is the numerological meaning of 8 copies? Why not 9? Why not 10? Better call in an expert!
