Their other books are: "The Coffee Tea Or Me Girls Lay It On The Line", "The Coffee Tea Or Me Girls' 'Round The World Diary" and "The Coffee Tea Or Me Girls Get Away From It All." As you've said, they write about a time (and a type of society) which doesn't really exist anymore, but is still fun to read regardless. I recommend all of their books. I keep hoping to read a "What Are They Doing Now" article one of these days, because I do wonder how they handled the 80s, 90s and this decade.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-88942073033129711952008-08-24T00:03:00.000-05:002008-08-24T00:03:00.000-05:00FYI The real author is a guy named Donald Bain.

One girl did change her name to be "Rachel Jones" to capitalize on her fame, but neither wrote the book and they were only used because they had great voices and bodies to go with the myth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-78629870459536644862007-03-21T22:56:00.000-05:002007-03-21T22:56:00.000-05:00Lesley,Thanks from Sunshine.

I'll give her that extra hug and rub; she's been enjoying all the extra cuddles. :)<BR/><BR/>Oh, yes, the picture. Gotta get to that. I can't believe how little I'm accomplishing, so far, this week.

It's a reprint, so you can easily find yourself a nice, fresh copy. Mine was remaindered; I bought it at our outlet bookstore just before they went out of business (sob). You might want to try somewhere like Bookcloseouts, unless you tend to get in trouble if you go there (ask me if I know what I'm talking about).Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-16052588586256726022007-03-19T19:46:00.000-05:002007-03-19T19:46:00.000-05:00Carrie,You sneaky devil.
