There’s a fine on this book

 
Many years ago, when I was a librarian I didn’t get much enjoyment out of charging fines for overdue books and since it was in the days before computers one could occasionally buck the system and let people off. One woman who I enjoyed charging – and who laughed aloud as she paid her 9d – was the one who was late returning a book by Betty James entitled “1001 Money Saving Tips”.
