Status update

I have emptied 13 boxes, of which I have filled 2 (one large, one small) back up with "books to go".

I have 3 small boxes to go, plus three large crates (the ones that loaves of bread are usually stacked in in supermarkets, stolen by me when I was out for a midnight walk 10 years ago, avoiding packing when moving house) full of books.

My shelves are full, but fortunately two of those shelves have stuff on that will be going next weekend (videos of Erin's), and I have two more shelving units waiting to be screwed to the wall (probably tomorrow night).

All in all, I'd say that I would be totally fed up with boxes, if I didn't keep on finding cool stuff inside them.

Going to stop now, hang up some washing, brush my teeth and collapse unconscious.  The rest can wait until tomorrow night.

Wish I could come over and help sort! This sort of mining is often fun, especially when a liberal amount of nice red wine accompanies the lifting and dust.

Hey, if you doing nothing with the books, give em to Gordon and he can sell them for some cash.

I still think you're mad for getting rid of books, but I guess if they don't fit in the house then that's okay :P. Besides, I, and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance can't complain :P.


I'd offer to come and collect it to save you the postage, but, erm, there's most of a country in the middle :P.

What kind of cool stuff do you find in the boxes?

There are (so far as I know) 3 Michael Moorcock books worth holding onto. I have nearer 20.

And that's just a start :->

O_o. Okay, I take it all back :P.

At least you'll be able to support the local charity shops for a fair while - and end up with incredibly level furniture and/or beds.....
