    Talks with little conviction and the charisma of a piece of lettuce.

    I knew that book rang a bell @elleb@elleb - won the Booker prize didn't it?

    I've started using World of Books for my reading material. Got a 10 book haul for 35 quid delivered this week. Lovely stuff.

    The "Please Shut The Gate" sign has arrived during the one week its message hasn't been required.

    Perhaps its mere presence has caused this positive change.

    I buy a lot of mine through Abebooks. Its a pretty comprehensive catalogue although they do charge quite high commission to independent sellers apparently so I sometimes find the book on there and then email the seller directly. But cheeky but gets a few quid off for the pricer ones!

    Here's an interesting article from their newsletter the other day about the most expensive sales of 2020. You'll notice they do art and music as well.

    Yes, they do, lots of old maps and other interesting stuff.

    I've picked up a few things from these as well but they mainly have Africa/US sales https://antiquarianauctions.com/
