Fruit pickers and other book lovers from around the Teviot
Valley flocked to the two-day book sale held at Roxburgh on
Friday and Saturday.
Hundreds of books were on sale, side by side with a large
cake stall and white elephant stall.
The annual book sale had been running for a few years and had
established a reputation which brought people from all around
the district, sales assistant Wyn Dryden said.
"It is good for pickers in the district to be able to get
some reading material and it seems to fill a need for the
holiday group."
Book dealers always arrived first thing in the morning on the
day the book sale opened to pick up any books they might find
valuable, Ms Dryden said.
"The white elephant stall also contains quite a few treasures
from time to time and is well worth a look."
The money raised from the sale will help the Catholic Church
community in the Teviot Valley.
