Hunting for Fifty Shades of Grey. by ladymagpie

Hunting for Fifty Shades of Grey.

Just an update on my Supermarket comment and photograph yesterday. I put it on the Supermarkets Facebook page and received a message from their headquarters quite quickly. After supplying the Shop address they were contacting the Manager to ask what was going on.

I love visiting the small villages around the Cotswolds and to see what they have done to the village phonebox. I have seen one before like this, but isn't it wonderful how they are now trustworthy mini libraries. Bring a book along and take one in exchange.

That's two mini libraries now, and I haven't found a copy of "Fifty Shades of Grey" yet. Now I know that all of you have read it, but I haven't so give me a clue about the various colours in the story (Wink).

Well done Heather re the supermarket. They must think we are all clueless! I guess that book is rather grey - and boring!

First of all, I'll be anxious to hear what the supermarket says.Social media does have its advantages. Secondly, I really hope the book share idea comes to my area. A very nice capture of it. And I love the title!

Hehe when I first saw this I thought you had built a bookshelf in a small space. Then I read about it. At any rate love the capture! It is a fav for me. Now as to 50 shades I bought and read the first book. I didn't think it was that great. I did bye the second but neve had the interest to read it, so it sits unread on my kindle.

great composition and processing Heather and a Fav. I noticed in my local Sainsbury's today the same offer on ice creams that you mentioned yesterday so it must be widespread scamming!

A phone box library; it's an idea. So sad that a lot of 'normal' local public libraries have to close their doors. My library, where I work as a volunteer has to close within a few month.

Seems you really stirred things in the Supermarket world. In the Fifty Shades world things were supposedly well shaken and stirred - but if you like good literature I wouldn't recommend it

Nice shot..... I 've seen a couple of villages in Northamptonshire that do this with their phone boxes...... what a great idea.
Well done for contacting Sainsbury's ....... hope you get some vouchers for your action.

I can send you an unread copy if you want. But it isn't worth the postage. Glad you got some result from Sainsbury's.

Wonderful capture and fantastic idea! Hope the idea comes over to Oz! As for 50 shades of grey - I have that in the sky and the ocean every day at the moment :) Fav

Heather believe it or not, I haven't read that particular book as of yet either!
August 6th, 2015  
I started to read that book and put it down very quickly. I don't need go into why. This is really a lovely shot and nice processing of it.

August 6th, 2015
