I know that my collection is modest compared to some some of my mates who need to extend the house to hold the books. I think its OK if you use them for more than just wallpaper. The re- stacking begins on Monday. Make yourself known when you come down.

I dined a couple of times at the Sunday lunchs you did at Circa, and loved the ecelectic produce you brought from the garden.<BR/>Relieved to see someone with a larger cookbook collect then mine, they can be addictive!<BR/>JackJackie Middletonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16097430040613398754noreply@blogger.com
