About My Library
A succession of enthusiasms through my life has left me with a collection of books on each topic. Somehow I have a metre of shelf on the I Ching and related, 12ft of poetry, and a foot of Richard Feynman
The actual number of books on my shelves remains fairly constant as these days I don't keep every book. For a true number deduct the figures for tags Read&Gone and LTS, which stands for "Life too short"!
About Me
Please note that I do NOT take bookings for Banstead Community Hall -- people keep asking. You need Joanne Smith 01737 360568, josmithbca@hotmail.co.uk.

I've lived all my life to the South of London and been reading since 1938. I blame Enid Blyton & her Sunny stories. Now in my eighties I have rarely disposed of a book in my life and my current shed/computer room/CD store now contains over 4000 books.It drives my wife mad! When not reading, surfing or listening to all kinds of music - Mozart to Morton (Jelly Roll) I have just ceased after 15 years to edit a newsletter for our local branch of University of the Third Age. Now it's just the database and email circulation.
