Plus all of the Serier of Unfortunate Events. The trouble is, when you go into Waterstones there are hundreds of books aimed at his age group. Then you look at this tiny shelf with a few audio books on it and it's a but sad really.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

We've literally spent thousands on books over the years. On our recent trip to the states we spent $200 on audio books. The paper versions would have been about $50.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

Do you know anyone who could record some for you? Maybe worth contacting a theatrical or stage school to see if one or more students can do this as a project. i.e record a play with some of the stage directions left in to explain what is going on -would be could experiance for them!Just call me Matron - Too many handbagsComment

The RNIB have a library but its limited. He gets a load of braille books from them. Odd to think that Ian Brady could be the person typing them up.

Have you tired the assorted "discount book" type places in outlet centres and often small towns. We've got a guy locally deals with remaindered books and he has quite a good range of audio books (mainly BBC titles). Might just be worth popping in when you're passing one.Originally posted by TonyEnglish View PostComment

My dad (totally blind) reads audiobooks all the time and has some sort of mp3 player that the RNIB provided. He never seems to have a problem obtaining what he wants.
He wanted a massively obscure audiobook recently and the only place I could find it was www.listening-books.org.uk. Didn't get it in the end, but their library looked pretty extensive.Qdos Contractor - IR35 expertsComment
