Reader, collector, librarian. It's not just about the books though, I am into other things. Like, um...

Time is money. If it takes twice as long to do something you earn half as much. This is the brutal fact at the heart of Brexit.

Let’s "Brexit" a £12.99 paperback, blow by blow, and see what difference leaving the single market has made.

A brilliant book from @WorstJourneyGN It really does bring the heroic age of Antarctic exploration vividly to life. I can't wait for Volume 2!

@CalistaHistory I think I’d cut quite the dash in that!

@monkficionado @Stephanie2jones @AilsaMcW @UWEBristol This is very sad news. He came to the library desk shortly after I started at Aber. I hadn’t seen him in about twenty years and I did a proper double-take!

@DigitalTolkien I bought a copy of this forty-odd years ago with money from my paper round. It was the first Tolkien book I bought with my own money. I’ve still got it too (the book, not the paper round!)

Help me publish four years of work on the dark history of space exploration. The Kickstarter for my new book is now live here: https://t.co/4Gn3p18ua0

[Simon French @SimonFrenchBook]

@CalistaHistory I might see if the NLW get a copy. It would be the ideal opportunity to book my first visit there in over two years!
