What's a little sin to see us through?
Natasha's Dance by Orlando Figes from Oxfam.
Also, we had a booksale at the library the other day and I filled a f*cking box. For less than a tenner I got
Blenheim by Charles Spencer
Elizabeth's London by Liza Picard
The Bonfire of the Vanities by Tom Wolfe
Shooting Stars: drugs, Hollywood and the movies by Harry Shapiro
Immigrants and the Class Struggle by Joseph Buckman
Drake by Stephen Coote
Peasants and Landlords in Later Mediaeval England by F B Pryde
The Pre-Raphaelites by Terri Hardin
For Esme With Love and Squalor by JD Salinger
LittleDotCom by Ralph Steadman
and a facsimilie copy of the 1892 records of the Parish of Whitkirk, from a limited edition of 300.
Should keep me out of mischief for a while, and I know for a fact that three of those books alone are worth fifty quid between them, so not only will they provide further nourishment for me brain, they'll also give me a massive profit when I sell them on ebay

Not exactly bought, but rescued from being chucked out at work (the sh*t they want to get rid of would make any true book lover weep, hence why I keep bringing it home).......

Steve-Dave:
Better the devil you know, though. How many of the sensible people would ever vote for Romney?
Walt Flanagan:
They're going to be non-votes, not votes for Barack.
Steve-Dave:
I doubt it. I'd say that with some of the stuff Romney will come out, people could vote Barack just to prevent Romney getting in.
Walt Flanagan:
Well, he's so clearly a terrible human being.
Walt Flanagan:
He's going to gaff his way out of the White House, even as the President is hated from all the sides of the spectrum that aren't starry eyed.
Walt Flanagan:
The GOP has gone too far towards the Stupid Bigot side of things, it may take years to get back.
Walt Flanagan:
I just think people who say that Obama would have to f*ck a white woman on television to not get elected are missing the danger.
Steve-Dave:
Oh I think Romney will still give Obama a run for his money. Romney flip-flops a lot. Could appeal to a wide enough base overall to run it close
oatibix:
Something's happened here.
Steve-Dave:
This is what happens when you leave Colin.
Steve-Dave:
And I don't mean "This is what happens when you leave, Colin", I mean this is what happens when you leave Colin. I left Colin and became all sensible and sh*t
Steve-Dave:
I'm an equivocating motherf*cker
Rayanne Graff:
Yeah, you're sh*t. i'm not sure about sensible, though.
Jimmy:
Holy sh*t everything's Barry.
Steve-Dave:
Everything's better!
Puffalump:
Barrier
Steve-Dave:
The Barryest it's ever been
Jimmy:
I can't wait for more "Important Barry and changes"
Steve-Dave:
Well there will be some Barry and changes coming soon, because we need more donations. It no longer just takes £10 a year to help Barry survive
Steve-Dave:
It takes like... £13
