I guess each for his own, hey? I for one asked my fiance to buy this for me for my birthday, I think he is an interesting guy, even though he has his mistakes (like all of us)
Jewels, it is quite a good book, I got some lovely ideas from it, if you want I can pass it on to you when I am done? (Sorry, I am talking about the wedding book here!)
Phew, if you did not mention ( in brackets!!!) the wedding book, I would have asked you to share the lovely ideas..:rofl: :rofl:

hello
my reading has taken a back step lately 
altho i am reading an old book by doris leesing - who is a zim writer and the book is old (1960s) very good
called teh grass is singing
i am still reading this
it shocks me - it is about a town woman who marries a farmer and there is a murder
shocking on the mentality involved and accounts of rascism
taking me ages to read as alot going on at the moment

Nooit ! Shame on you, it is the best bookshop in the world, can browse and order all from the warm comfort of your own home.
They are excellent with the deliveries, and of course they every title imaginable.
I like a lot of books from the US and so of course they can get anything for me, and at a normal price, unlike Borders and Waterstones. I still do occasionally shop there, but I find Amazon's prices so good.
(for eg, I wanted to buy a CD for a friend and on HMV it was £17.99 and Amazon £10.99)
