Sale day! Sale day!

A man from Parcel Force staggered up to the door today with a box containing twenty nine books by Charlotte M Yonge which I'd bought on eBay. The seller was so helpful. The postman was so helpful: "This is very heavy. Can I put it somewhere for you?" I have a feast of reading matter ahead plus a few duplicates to sell.

In a charity shop I bought 500g of Patons Classic Cotton for £8.00 It's a nice springlike primrose yellow, too.

Can this go on?

Gosh, I thought I was doing well getting a parcel with three books in it!

It has been a very lovely day today. I'm glad it's finally spring.

Huge parcel and the books were cheap!

A day to remember on a bad one.

Mine were free! I do have to write a review of them, though ...

I am going to read Charlotte Yonge when I get one of those round tuit thingies. Which is the best, do you think? Or should one start with a less than best and save the other for a future treat.

I would start with The Daisy Chain. Great read and the characters crop up in later books. I'd love to make converts! Then save The Pillars of the House, which is in two volumes, for a treat.

Lucky lucky lucky!

My new bank card arrived yesterday, so now I can buy things on the internet again!

Whence the lovely icon?

Good news about the card.
I'm rather pleased with that icon. It's the cover of a German book which was for sale on eBay. I was tempted for my Barbara collection but it went too high. So i nicked the picture anyway.
