    I got the first two books over to Jan's college library today. The Janet McArthur Memorial Book Trust has officially been born!

    Well done Jim, that's a very kind and generous thing you are doing. I'm sure Jan would be proud of you mate.

    I'd just like to echo the sentiments of Mark and Phil, and wish you all the best in this new venture.

    Thank you, everyone.

    Eight books in the collection so far: three (and maybe more) more will be added by week's end.

    I believe she does, Clee. Her picture is going inside every donated book, and the library has a display case exhibit with her photo.

    By the way, we're up to 32 books: not too shoddy for just a few weeks.
