Not All Bad

Oh dear: davesmusictank (who wanders the South East as obsessively as I do) tells me my favourite second-hand bookshop (Tome in Eastbourne) is closing.

Oh good: they're having a closing down sale.

PIGS

The fattened pigs of Cockayne
Are meek as little mice.
Knives are tied to each one's side
So diners can cut a slice.

But round the neck of St Antony's pig
Is a silver bell on a rope
So the devils can hear when his master's near
With his terrible crozier and cope.
