Raid my stuff

As most of you know, I am moving in a month. As an ex of mine once said, "Three moves are as good as a fire," and while that might be a touch exaggerated, it is always an opportunity to declutter somewhat. Since packing is inherently boring, so company is always welcome and the bait is a chance to pilfer things of mine you may covet. There is no better time to convince me to give you something than when I am dealing with the inconvenience of packing it, so anyone who wants to make a pitch for something might want to make their move now.

Oh, you'll probably get fed, too, you know.

Tolkien Supports Me

Upon reading about Waistcoat Wednesday, a friend sent me this:

"I like, and even dare to wear in these dull days, ornamental waistcoats."

- From a letter written by JRR Tolkien (25 October, 1958) to Deborah Webster.
