Easter silliness

9 Apr 2009

Just spotted a Baedeker for sale which was described as "Presented to the owner in July 1893" (my emphasis) and immediately wondered why this poor person had to sell the book at this late stage in life, being at least 115 years old... nursing home bills?

Sorry, I'm just being silly - there is not a lot else to write about right now, unfortunately. Let's hope things get busier after Easter.
