I took a couple of books somewhere, and I can't remember where, and I think I must have left them there.

Because we made a big boo boo ordering the other books I had another copy of that one anyway but I needed to use the other one.

The one Iost was a modern re-printed hardback and cost something like fifteen quid. Rather than lose another hardback, I ordered a paperback for four quid.

Imagine my delight when my paperback arrived and proved to be an original hardback copy with the illustrated end papers in it that set in train yet another set of ideas.

Happy bunny here with hard book.

Every cloud and all that, Sharron.

I had a book my friend wanted to borrow, I took it out with me one day but didn't get to his house. Can I find it now? Can I heck? I have looked everywhere, can't think what I have done with it?

It will probably turn up when it's too late, lol

There is another book somewhere as well. One of those I mentioned as being free on-line now, so I don't need to buy another to replace it, but it would be nice to know where it went.

I can't imagine anybody has taken it as nobody else is daft enough to want to read the old twaddle I do.

Books are amazing, though, aren't they? :-)

This one is. Makes me feel very inadequate that I can't even get my little bit of information written up.
