Published Date: 29 August 2008
BOOKSHOPS across the Capital are reporting sluggish sales of Sir Sean Connery's recently published memoirs.
Released last Thursday, a number of leading retailers, including Borders and WHSmith, have reported selling as few as 14 copies of the book, Being A Scot.

A spokesman for WHSmith said: "I wouldn't say it was a disaster and we do expect sales to rise. It's the middle of August after all and money is tight for most people."

Despite worries elsewhere, copies have sold out at the Waterstone's store in George Street.

Despite worries elsewhere, copies have sold out at the Waterstone's store in George Street.

Their entire stock of one copy sold to an old man with a funny way of shpeaking.

The man is loopy - people are also pointedly ignoring his pointless spoutings in the written word also. He has lost all credibility in my eyes. If he's so concerned about Scotland, our politics and 'being a Scot' then he shoudl get his ar$e back over here instead of sitting miles away as a tax exile.

Shame, he was rather good as Bond. James Bond.
