I'm not supposed to buy more either, but I don't no how, whenever I see an interesting book, I got an itch in my right hand. So you see, I have no choice. :biggrin:

What's a car boot sale ?

We have garage sells during summer, a.i. people who want to get rid of things they don't need or like anymore, put them in front of their house all day long for a symbolic price. I like to search books. The most expensive may be $5.
