Sale!!

Started the annual clear out sale today, which is basically an exercise in getting rid of ageing stock which is doing nothing other than taking up room on the shelf and attracting dust. It's mostly books you've never heard of, or books about artists or musicians you've never heard of. This does not seem to dissuade the canny bargain hunter. As I was attempting to put some books in the clearance boxes earlier I was actually jostled out of the way by at least two people deliberately, and accidentally with a heartfelt apology by another. The phrase 'flies round shite' springs to mind.
