 I have new specs.

I've worn varifocals for a couple of years and find I would prefer not to. These new specs are long distance only- and for close-up work I'll use one of several old pairs I have lying around.

I like it when people are pictured against book shelves- and always try to read the spines of the books. I remember an archdeacon once saying that the bookshelves of the clergy he visited told him at a glance exactly when his host had stopped thinking. By the evidence on show here I stopped thinking in the 1920s when the most recent of these books- A.A. Milne's Christopher Robin poems (snuggled up to Walt Whitman)- were first published

Do you like my model of "The Flying Scotsman? £1.00 from the shop at the Recycling Centre (Tip Shop).
