    Bob I though that they have to get books if people have asked for them ? Mine have come from all over the County not just my local library.

    Ooh, what books, Bob, El??? pm me if you need to ..... and I missed out on a book conversation, rats.... books and magazines are the reasons I started decluttering ... I live in a 3 bed house on my own, and I was having to shuffle past all the bookcases :) it just got ridiculous. I managed to get rid of one (they're all six feet tall, by the way) partly by throwing out old notes and articles. Still more to be done tho.

    I re-read! A lot. And some I've had so long I just couldn't get rid of them.
