Too many books, not enough shelves

[ewx]

Books I want rid of:

Gone:

Eye Of The Zodiac (E C Tubb)

Rork! (Avram Davidson)

A Spell For Chameleon (Piers Anthony)

Blood Heritage (Sheri S Tepper)

Hermetech (Storm Constantine)

The Two Of Us (Joanna Russ)

Picnic On Paradise (Joanna Russ)

The Adventures Of Alyx (Joanna Russ)

Lord Valentine's Castle (Robert Silverberg)

Valentine Pontifex (Robert Silverberg)

The Influence (Ramsey Campbell)

Rogue Moon (Algis Budrys)

The Other Universe (John Sinclair)

The Argument Culture (Deborah Tannen)

Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus (John Gray)

The Story Of Scotland (Nigel Tranter)

You collect from King's Hedges (not working hours) or Station Rd (working hours), or meet somewhere in Cambridge town centre on a weekday lunchtime. (Or obviously at some occasion we'll both be at.)

Blood Heritage and Lord Valentine's Castle are, in my opinion, both fine fine books. Blood Heritage is also impossible to get hold of these days. I already have copies though (and live in the wrong city anyway)

[ewx.livejournal.com]

See subject l-) This is probably just the first pass, too...

[rmc28]

As you have a copy, I feel no guilt in asking for Blood Heritage then :)

[ewx.livejournal.com]

I'll bring it round this afternoon.

[hoiho.livejournal.com]

Just get more shelves, man!

[ewx.livejournal.com]

I do have some plans involving extra shelving. But you've not seen the number of books piled up around the house...

[fivemack.livejournal.com]

Can I have _Rogue Moon_ and _The Story of Scotland_ ? I'll cycle over, or will you be at the fanf-party today?

[speaking of fanf-parties, I'd better start baking now]

[ewx.livejournal.com]

I'll be at the party.

[simont]

I wouldn't say no to Valentine Pontifex.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

OK.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

I'll try to remember to bring it to the pub next week, if nothing else turns up in the meantime.

[hsenag.livejournal.com]

I'd like the two Silverberg books, please.

What time do you normally get into/leave work? I normally cycle through the town centre to and from work, so it'd probably be easiest to collect from your work.

[hsenag.livejournal.com]

Ah, beaten by Simon while I was writing the post :-) I'll still take the other Silverberg if possible, though.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

OK.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

So, er, when do you want to collect it?

I'm at Jupiter House on Station Rd; my desk phone is 723608. I tend to get in between 0930 and 1000 (usually towards the earlier end of that) and leave between 1800 and 1830. Obviously, meetings and getting lunch can take me away from my desk at various points but if you're thinking about the start or end of the day that's perhaps less of an issue.

[hsenag.livejournal.com]

Sorry, been meaning to email you but keep forgetting. Monday morning ok? I can't be later than 9:45 since I have to be in work by 10, but if you're not around then I can just try the next day - it's pretty much on my way.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

OK, I'll try to be earlier rather than later on Monday. You might want to send me a reminder late Sunday.

[enismirdal.livejournal.com]

I'd claim the Storm Constantine except that I don't live in Cambridge any more. Would me trying to get that book be too inconvenient? (If you'd rather not faff, I understand!)

[ewx.livejournal.com]

It's yours if you want it and can arrange to get it to you l-) Is there someone in Cambridge you're likely to see sometime who'd be prepared to act as postman? (Or if you're likekly to be in Cambridge sometime I could just hang onto it until then.)

[enismirdal.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm bound to be in Cambridge sometime soonish! I'll see if I can persuade ilanin to look after it for me, since whenever I do pop up to Cambridge I'm likely to see him.

(The other option is for me to send you a properly stamped, self-addressed envelope, but with new postal charges may be more faffsome.)

[ewx.livejournal.com]

The book is quite happy waiting around my house until you're next in Cambridge, but I can also drop it off with other people in Cambridge (within reason) if that'd be quicker.

[aardvark179.livejournal.com]

I'll take the Joanna Russ and the Ramsey Campbell if nobody else wants them.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

OK, they're yours. I'll try to remember to bring them to the pub next week.

[aldabra]

The Argument Culture. I'll be back in Cantab next week.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid someone already asked for that in email.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

Don't rush out and buy a copy just yet, the person who arranged to meet me today to take it off my hands does not appear to have turned up.

[ewx.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid it's definitely gone now.
