Light reading

I'm having a bit of a back blip session! My parents are selling my childhood home (sad times) and despite having not actually lived there themselves for over 10 years there is still a lot of stuff in the attic to be sorted. In this collection are boxes and boxes of books, a lot of which are my grandads'. It sounds like grandad Henderson was a bit of a Del Boy, he would do anything if he thought he could make money out of it/save money by doing it himself. There are books on bricklaying, engineering, carpentry, farming, livestock keeping, you name it, oh and...chinchillas. Bearing in mind this book is from the 40's or 50's, it just makes me laugh. Anyway Robbie has claimed it, he thinks it's a vital piece of literature to have on one's book shelf. It was quite nice to have a wee bit of insight into a man I would have loved to, but never had the chance to meet.
