Don't think I could do that snoops, I have to debate with myself, and as I'm already half way loopy it'd tip me over the edge

haven't been for ages
trying to get off Genealogy a bit, watch more films, and read more
ended up with The Time travellers wife!
The Road was out so ordered that.
It must be wonderful to put pen to paper and end up with something
that folk want to read and enjoy.
Was a little surprised at how noisy some of the kids chatter was on the computer
but hey not my problem, and it was dealt with.
I think we should have a reading group on here and choose a book read it and then discuss it
if anyone is up for it....do say and we can start it off...
BOOK SNOOPS Reading ClubSnoopers involved.....
Northern Lass
Snoopysue

You are so lucky! The powers that be have decided to tax e-readers very highly, as computers I think, so they cost the earth. The Librarian Society ha d ameeting aboutthem last year and seemed more concerned about what to call them in Icelandic (need to make up a word) rather than actually getting any or offering e-books on "loan".
I almost bought a Sony one but could not decide, they seem expensive and I worry that as soon as I buy one they will be improved and made cheaper
