When Wednesday feels like Monday

[caddyman]

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.

Couldn't you ebay it, I'm sure somebody will want if you get the word out to the right people, I just remember how much time/money went into it and the bin would be a crime!

If no-one wants the armour, I'll help you with it...*g*

I think for the Mary Poppins click to work you will have to sing A Spoonful of Sugar.

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

Register the books on bookcrossing and then wild release them!
Elle knows what I mean, she has a bookcrossing account and can do the registering and numbering.
