Extended Profile


Hi, I am married and I have 5 children ranging in age from 29 to 13 and a daft dog called Sophie. I love reading and will read anything and everything from dictionaries to cornflake packets. I am a freelance proofreader and copy editor (looking for commissions), and presently have a summer job selling ice cream. My husband is a stonemason and is mad about railways and steam engines.
I have lots of books, on many subjects, some of which I am willing to share with others and will offer them on my bookshelf, so keep checking to see if I have anything you might wish to trade. I especially like to read biographies and factual books.

I'd like to say thank you to all who have sent books to me, whether as RABCKs, trades or bookrings/rays. I look forward to the postman coming each day, wondering if he has a parcel for me!



Grammar God!
You are a GRAMMAR GOD!


Congratulations! If your mission in life
is not already to preserve the English tongue,
it should be. You can smell a grammatical
inaccuracy from fifty yards. Your speech is
revered by the underlings, though some may
blaspheme and call you a snob. They're just
jealous. Go out there and change the world.

Only problem with this counter is it's making me look more popular than I am by counting every time I log on to my own bookshelf!
