    So I was browsing the charity shops of Durham City, and found that one is moving. Selling off stock, 10 books/cds for a pound, to eliminate moving costs. 10p a book!
    This is the most lovely gardening book, though for the larger English garden, I guess it can be applied anywhere.
    MrsA is our gardener, I prune the trees, hedge, lawn. This is an inspirational book however, beautifully painted plans to go with photos...

      Reading a hyper local book, beautifully written touching on many aspects of life here. The farm she writes of goes on, run by the 4th generation.

          Just googled your 'Valley of the Poets', and images; what a lovely area of the US it looks.

              Gotta love browsing our charity shops. Book's like new, and the other seven were near fine. Got to ten by selecting a Mozart and a mandolin CD.
              Made my day, countering the 20p/litre jump in diesel price.

                  Also from a thrift store, this book chronicles wooden boat building in/around Lake Muskoka, Ontario, Canada, 1900 through about 1970.

                  Beautiful things they are, and the photographs are wonderful!
