About me I have passions for books, dogs, and music, in that order (today, but may be a different order tomorrow).

About my library So much of it is still packed away in the loft - we're either going to extend the house or move, as there just isn't enough room. I've listed everything that's made it into a lucky bookshelf position, but what about the legions of sad friends, hidden away in boxes? It's been so long since I've seen most of them that I can't remember what I've got. The sooner I manage to get them on here, the better.

My collection is mostly literary fiction, with a few tangents here and there. Anything to do with cars is courtesy of my other half. There are a few turkeys too, but that's because I can never get rid of a book, no matter if I enjoyed it or not. You know when you've forgotten to pack a book for a flight, and end up picking up, in desperation, the least dismal looking publication from the airport? Ah, yes, you've been there.

Thanks for your message. It's good to have you on the Radio 3 Group. I hope that you will contribute from time to time. Happy listening!
Glad to see you in the Mystical & Spiritual group. Thank you for joining.
Ahh, a very good question. When meeting an author and getting a book signed I always ask them to write 'F*** Off' (although without the stars, I am being polite). Many of them use a bit of poetic license and elaborate somewhat but most of them enter into the spirit of it. Call it juvenile, but it does amount to a unique collection.

Thanks for asking.
