I TOO was a recipient of one of an excellent Concise Collins Dictionary -- New Edition.

The Minister for Education would do well to ensure there were at least five in every school.

Parents too could choose wisely, by making a Christmas present of one, which would prove helpful to themselves also.

However, this blind old man thinks it is wasted on him so he has passed it onto his niece who has ambitions of following in the footsteps of Enid Blyton.

He is sure it will be of immense help.

My niece and I thank you very, very much.

And I assure you much good use will be made of it.
