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...

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!

There are still a couple of launch builders here in England.

In London last weekend I got these in an Oxfam bookshop
Today I trawled for charity shops in a nearby town and spent a colossal £5.50 for these (six are really nice, including on watercolour for MrsA, an interesting flower ID by month they flower, the one with Harold King is a Folio Society from 1973 on the Bayeux Tapestry with complete photography, Shining Sands will be my first read though)
