About meMale, retired, will attempt to read anything with writing on it.

About my libraryPerhaps 90% catalogued, but totally disorganised; and cataloguing has turned up books I've bought and forgotten about, unread, and books I've read but forgotten about; so I need to organise them - stop buying books and buy another bookcase!

I've been feeling crummy, too, and therefore spending more time than usual on LT. Thanks for making it more enjoyable in the Silly Game. Sometimes the best you can do is distract yourself for a while. Hope you feel better soon!

Brilliant use of Nine Tailors in the Silly Game, rankamateur! I'm enjoying each and every one - and it also reminds me what a great book that is, with so many quirky and clever lines. Well done!
