Surplus to requirements

I've always loved reading.

I'd finished Enid Blyton and all the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew books before I left Primary school and spent my teenage years in the shadowy world of espionage with Desmond Bagley, Alistair Maclean, Frederick Forsyth and co.

I think I read every book in our small Public library then began buying books at car boot sales and summer fetes.

The end result of which is a collection of some 400+ novels and 200+ non-fiction books ... not all of which I've had time to read ... and with the advent of ebooks, Kindle and the likes are very quickly becoming outdated. :(
