When Wednesday feels like Monday
Cooler today, so far –except, of course, on the Tube, where it swelters undisturbed by the wider environment – it is cooler because no shifting and packing can be done during the day as we are back at work and the Karma Pixies are having their play. Tonight there will be more desultory packing, with further items lugged across to the flat. Soon we will have to come to the question of BOOKs they being probably the largest population of similar items to be boxed, followed in order of magnitude by CDs and DVDs (there is room form debate on this: the quantum of CDs is the greater of the two, but the DVDs in various package styles are individually larger).
As much as it goes against the grain, I may have to downsize my library again, even if only by a token amount. The history and otherwise factual books are sacrosanct, but some novels may find their way to the charity shops. I never ditched a book in over 20 years and now I am looking to do it again for the second time in 4 years.
O tempora! O Mores!
If anyone wants that armour I mentioned a while back, you have until Sunday evening before it gets binned. It would be a shame to just chuck it, given the number of role-players on my friends list, but we don’t want it/can’t use it, so for the final time of asking...?
Last night I tried the Mary Poppins approach to tidying and packing by snapping my fingers: it doesn’t work. Hard as it may be to believe, Disney have lied to us. It’s true.

Should you make it tomorrow night, you could join us in the pub quiz for BEER. Email me for phone number and directions.

But you now have to go round closing the doors of all those model tardi.

If'n you're willing to make the trip to Whetstone
I'll be at Kensal Green Cemy on Saturday to take a tour of the Egyptian Monuments, so possibly early in the afternoon?

Equally, if someone else is able to get there sooner, then please, don't hold it on my account - I'll be up for grabbing it as a potential prop, but if someone can put it to better use, then I wouldn't want to deprive them.
(If that makes any sense whatsoever).

Yeah, well I'm not exactly Sticky the Stick Insect myself.
Do you think it'll fit?

Oh, and what sized bag will be needed?

As I recall the 2 biggest items are the breastplate (it's rubber so a bit bendy, but not too bendy) and I think there's a similarly sized back piece - I need to check, but assume there is. You'll need to be able to fit a helmet, too.
As big as you can manage, basically!

Elle knows what I mean, she has a bookcrossing account and can do the registering and numbering.
