Had me laughing like a drain - wonderful writing!

Thanks, David! That comment has made my day. Thumbs Up

I didn't think borrows affected chart positions but I may be wrong (for the first time in my life Tongue ).

They definitely erase tan lines which is pretty cool. Seemingly, some readers hang out for the first of the month to get their next borrow.

RE: Amazon Prime UK Free Borrows

Borrows definitely contribute to sales rank. I hadn't sold anything on dot.com in days when my sles rank shot up by 200K. That's when I realised I'd had a borrow.

Still no borrows in the UK or Europe but a few sales of Strictly continue to trickle in.
