Status message:
I'm on bookcrossing, too, so chances are a lot of my books'll have a number written in them along with the URL, it'd be great if you could leave a little review on bookcrossing if you've received one. Not mandatory, but it would be appreciated.

IMPORTANT: If I've mooched something off of you, please write the lowest possible value on the customs form, or even "no cash value"- I have to pay in so heavily for the books and things I get from overseas, simply because the post office doesn't seem to acknowledge that what I do is swap for second hand goods. When no money has exchanged hands, they're not supposed to charge me duties, so please remember to write something deterring on the form. Thanks!

Completely off topic, but this is bugging me. Is it strange that the whole day today I've had the lyrics of the first sorting hat song stuck in my head set to the tune of the original Big Rock Candy Mountain? And is it stranger still that the rhythm of the lyrics fit the tune so well?

NB- South Africa seems to have a higher rate of parcels either going missing or being returned to sender, which accounts for my high lost rate. I assure you, every book I mark sent has actually been sent, and please refer to my excellent sent history- please do not be put off by this when mooching from me. Feel free to ask around about me if you still have doubts.

Hi there!

I'm a South African bookmoocher, which- as we all know- is a very rare kind of blue, one eyed salamander indigenous to the Australian Outback. These salamanders love movies, films, cinema, redundancy, books, books and books, and also fantasy when the mood strikes. These salamanders are mildly to disturbingly obsessed with Stephen Fry and all things UK / Ireland etc, especially the British humour.

Feel free to look me up on Facebook too, my whole little profile blurb is much more interesting there;)

I'm a {former} BMbarterer and TitleTrader too, and I'm ALWAYS looking for DVDs. Much as I love books and reading, I'm an even bigger movie freak, so if you've got any to trade, please drop me a line. Check out my DeviantArt page>> http://ammajiger.deviantart.com All the jewellery I make and list there is available to trade for BM points, and I also make custom orders.

For reference, as a rule I cancel when someone can't send something abroad if it's too heavy or expensive to send, to save them the reject- so don't be put off if my cancel rate seems a bit high.
