Status message:

Thanks for perusing my book inventory. As an avid book reader i largely source my books from second hand book shops, charity shops and from Library sales. For this reason, most of my books are well read, some may have creasing or marks on them from the readership they have attained during their lifetime. (I tend to think that's a good sign, it means a lot of people read it and didn't just pass it by or give up after the first page)

Ex library books often have their first inside (usually blank) page removed by the library as obviously this is where there was once a library record card attached. The books Title page, Introduction, Contents page and all subsequent pages are unaffected by this.

These books may also exhibit library stamps (usually in red ink - why red do you think?)...anyway, just wanted to be up front about that.

I endeavour to send out all books within 5-7 days of receiving notification that a book has been mooched from me. I would prefer to say 7 days max and then it allows for lack of transport to the post office, illness, or other such occurrances.

If i am going on holiday i will put it in my status, but if i am not on holiday but don't respond swiftly it will likely mean i am unwell or that i have no internet connection. Please allow a few days grace and of course, feel free to email me.

I send all packages by second class post, in well sealed jiffy bags. (which you can then recycle by using them to post out your mooched books!)

At this time i am not in a position to send sizeable/heavy books abroad. Should my situation improve, that may well change. If however, you wish to mooch one of the booklets i have listed, i should be able to stretch to posting those.

God Bless!
