About me Cambridge University MA. Now pretty well retired, most recently a Management consultant specialising in small businesses, previously (variously) school teacher, Advertising Agency MD, Bookshop/Library supply company owner even lawyer(briefly!).
About my library Collected, stolen, bought, inherited. Covers all my interests and a goodish few areas I might be interested in one day. I rarely sell a book (I give the odd one away) and rarely pass a second-hand bookshop without going in and then buying. I keep trying to break the habit, but it is too ingrained.

Under the window where i often found her
Sitting as huge as Asia, seismic with laughter,
gin and chicken helpless in her Irish hand..."
How kind of you to alert me to this one, esp. since it is recent and not even on Amazon's dot com site!
Did you note the recent death of John Heath Stubbs?
Stay well & all best,
