Dear Alice,

Of course we didn’t have a barcode scanner! That’s why I just waved a toilet roll over each book and just made a BEEPING sound with my mouth. BEEP. Didn’t you hear me? I was like BEEP, BEEP, BEEP. It was very effective and I think everyone appreciated my attention to detail. The only problem I had was when Ruby Foo tried to borrow Wildlife of Africa. For some reason THAT book wasn’t scanning properly, but I just ran the toilet roll over it a few more times and eventually it beeped.

Yours beepishly,

Jimmy Cook
