Is there any such thing...

as too many books? Answer: No!

Every year the Friends of the Opera House run a second hand book sale. They took over the basketball stadium last week sorting, pricing and stacking 12 months worth of donations and then at midday yesterday (Friday) they opened the doors on their 20th 24 hour book sale. Yup, you read that right - 24 hours. They sell right through the night.

I went out at 7.30 last night and left at 9 and by no means looked at everything. I did well though! I took one shopping bag and promised I would stop when I filled it. I am a very good packer and it's amazing what you can fit into one shopping bag if you really put your mind to it.
