Cambridge police are collecting foreign-language books for people to read while they're locked up. According to one of the papers this week, they're "trying to build up a collection of books for prisoners in our custody suites". Yes, "custody suites". Really.

They're particularly after books in Arabic, French, Portugese, Russian and Spanish. Between us, we must have have interesting books in all those languages - wouldn't it be great to get people reading them in their cells!

Take them to Parkside police station, or call 01223 358966
