EXPLORATION

I've made an exciting discovery. One of the many charity shops in town has devoted its whole first floor to books, vinyl and CDs, with a pricing policy for books of 10 percent of cover price. I predict that I shall become a frequent caller. I have a fondness for the accounts of intrepid lady travellers of the 19th and early 20th centuries, although this book doesn't quite fall into that category. I thought about a sympathetic backdrop for the purposes of blip, and remembered that somewhere I've got a woven Afghan camel nosebag, but I'm not ready to turn the loft upside down today looking for it. Another time perhaps.
