Wow!View attachment 166899 Three fab hardback books in mint condition, the Times one in particular is new and goes right up to 'globalisation and the interwebs'...!
£1.50 for the lot.
I would have had to chuck them an extra fiver for those.

I've found the motherlode. Scope in my town has a three books for a quid thing, I could resell hundreds of em on ebay for tidy profit were I so minded!
But no, I buy them and keep them in the library wing of the house
* for perusal at my leisure. I've got some great ones!

You could resell them on ebay and donate all of the proceeds to charity if you wanted to/ had time, they have a scheme for doing so.

That sounds awesome. Wool can get really expensive, pretty quickly.
It wasn't really a bargain, but I found some craft material today too. I've been working on creating a Japanese-style patchwork jacket, but haven't been able to find appropriate fabrics. Today I was thrift shopping and found a $1 sale and found five blouses that didn't fit me, but would look good in the patchwork jacket.

Good going. I just about never get to buy exactly what I might like, but given the vast variety of yarns/plants/colours, this is a good thing as I am an indecisive ditherer.
A single colour, and I will hold the yarn double - it will be a breeze after the intricate epics which have consumed me of late.

That jacket I would love to see!

I wish I could knit sometimes. Just for bobble hats really, I love a good bobble hat.
Best of luck, please show results of your endeavours!
It isn't hard, is highly portable, needs very little kit and has become far less gendered. My brother -n -law knits - he is a lorry driver and has a lot of time in his cab. More and more men are taking it up - check out men who knit - many cool Peruvians, Norwegians, Scots rediscovering a long and interesting heritage in yarn...plus as many tutorials online as you could wish for. A relaxing, meditative blending of form and function which is deeply satisfying.

My mate just said "If you look up the definition of 'louche' in the dictionary, there's a picture of a snakeskin wine carrier."
Yes!
