On the other hand...

... I treated myself with new books today. Had two hours between work and choir rehearsal, so Mum and I went to our favourite self-serving restaurant, had lunch (it's quite the time-saver if you don't have to cook *or* to do the washing-up afterwards).

Next to the restaurant is Alexandra, a very large bookshop, with a decent selection of English books. No sci-fi or fantasy, alas, but I bought "Fanny Hill", just in case I might need that kind of vocabulary one day (and it was on sale, so I got it for half the usual price). And I bought "The Art of Mesoamerica", because, well, pre-Columbian cultures are a very old interest of mine. I might buy "North American Indian Art", too, eventually, but that was quite expensive, so I'll wait for another horrible period when I'll be in sore need of some book comfort.
