Culling



Can't linger.
I'm busy culling little books
and cooking for a big birthday.

  1. I've still got my children's Ladybird book of Spelling and Grammar - I find it invaluable!

  2. How hard it must be, culling such little treasures!

  3. Those little Ladybirds are real treasures. I still have some from my own childhood in the 50`s . There is a Ladybird website where they buy and sell old ones as they are very collectable.

    1. Yes I tried contacting her but sadly no reply. I'm afraid mine are mostly in a lamentable condition and collectors are quite particular. I've sold a few to a local book shop and given some to the charity shop next door but kept most of them as I'm not very ruthless!

  5. Oh, those nature books, how can you bear to part with them? I wish my daughter had kept hers...

    Apart from chocolate based things, what else are you cooking for the birthday?

  6. I culled ours as well, although I kept the 2-volume Kings and Queens of England for reference. As you may tell, I only use the best in reference literature ;)
