Almanak

[Biccylova]

does enyone know if they still print old Moore's almanak's (don't know if that's spelt right) and where I might buy one? I can remember my old Dad used to buy one every year and I thought it might be fun to see if it could predict the years events as he used to say it did. I suppose only old fogey's like me would know, I asked in the local shop and the boy filling the news paper shelves looked at me funny.

cor blimey - that takes me back.
Old Moore's Almanack (sp?)
pale yellow/mustardy coloured outer wrapper wasn't it?

So, if you're an old fogey, then I'm in good company lol

My parents always had a copy

[Mamyalynne]

Yes, we always had one too.

[Patsy33]

I might get a copy for my oh. He will want to know which horse to back in the big races!

They used to sell it in Smith's.

[Georgiesmum]

Yes, all the newsagents used to sell them.

Thank you all, I have just ordered one from amazon. And just found out the difference between almanac and almanack, the one without a k is an Irish publication.

I want one now. I'd forgotten all about them, my parents always had one too. Think I'll order one.

[Biccylova]

It will cost a bit horselady but it lasts a year, next year I think I'll enquire if smiths can order one in for me.
