Books! BIG Books

[gothwalk]

Due to the great generosity of radegund, we are now in possession of a nearly complete 10th Edition Encyclopedia Britannica. Expect many random quotes and much inattentiveness otherwise, as I struggle with questions of why everyone in the Navy hates Mr Childers so much, and just where Rumelia is or was. All the volumes are currently sitting on the kitchen table, pending me finding a more suitable home for them somewhere in the house. Visits may be arranged.

I'll check for you just as soon as I can reach arbitrary books - at the moment, they're stacked out of order in the kitchen, waiting for me to clear shelf space for them elsewhere. And indeed, partially reconstruct the shelves to allow for the size of them. When they say "they don't make books like this anymore", they're not kidding. These things are theft-proofed by sheer size and weight.

Heh, that sounds excellent. Proper books! And there's no hurry on it, to be honest - it's not like I'm going to be finished this thesis any time soon!
(and I couldn't resist this icon, sorry!)
