With some of my rellies I've given up, basically, and gone out and bought rafts of book tokens for them. It's just so much easier, especially when so many people have everything and the shops are full of tat. I suddenly noticed it was almost Christmas today too. I'm starting to panic because I'm responsible for cooking Christmas dinner, and aren't you supposed to order things like chickens? Anyway. I'm not supposed to eat chocolate either, but I do. I would also like to hear your seasonal verse. Bath salts and book tokens are my favourite things.

I do wish you could get tokens for second-hand bookshops, though, as I dearly love pottering through those looking for something interesting. *waits patiently in line behind AB for the seasonal verse* Book tokens are one of the best gifts I can receive,so you’re not alone.

There is a young poet called Reed
who’s clever in word and in deed;
we sit around lurking
(much better than working)
so the moment she’s posted, we read.

Ach, soddit, I never could do limericks.
