and now for something completely different

*dies*

FINALLY. Stupid browser refuses to show the top toolbar so I've been switching modes until I can actually FIND the damn update button...

Okay. Anyway. I'm in Birmingham, in the house of my relatives and savouring civilisation. I've been staying in many, many B&Bs, and one can have too many cups of complimentary tea and cocoa before the boredom sets in.

We've been to Hay-on-Wye, the biggest second hand bookshop town in the world - over *30* of the damn things. I have restricted myself to the first Robert Rankin book and two paperback Shakespeares so I can write my oral. Other than that, am restricting spending as far as possible, but I'm going to a huge new shopping centre and market tomorrow >.<

Tink has procured volumes 5 and 8 of YnM and my life is thus approaching completeness. Am now off to update [livejournal.com profile] mercurial_wit again and stop being quite so antisocial towards my cousins. And reread both Jasper Fforde books. READ THEM *prods annie and eujar especially* They rock.

Perhaps it's a good thing I'm not going to Animania. All this talk of papier-mache is quite alarming.

NB - Cath, can you poke James for me and ask if he ever wears ANYTHING but his Venture gear when on hikes? (I saw the photos) :D

*pats frar comfortingly*
have they been cruel to you? or do they simply not understand very basic things which poor frar's need to grow?
