My books were on order before the 30th, and I will get them in March, so I'm fine.

>13 2wonderY: >14 lilithcat: That's Barters, in Alnwick in the north of England. I've been there. It is indeed very cool. Incidentally, it's actually in an old railway station.

Alnwick also has the famous Poison Garden.

>30 2wonderY:. Delurking to say that was funny. (I also found the video about the literate vs illiterate bookstore to be a good one.)
