Ah but Eomer, I live in the New Forest where ponies, cattle, pigs (during pannage), donkeys and books roam free ( or at least they will as soon as my starter kit arrives).

bookcrossing
n. the practice of leaving a book in a public place to be picked up and read by others, who then do likewise.

the web address is very obvious in case you are interested. You seem to have got the idea very well - I am sure you are right about Treebeard and Roald Dahl. I just love the idea of the world becoming a giant Library and trying out serendipity

I think I will leave some "Horrible Histories" for Gollum ... so he can get he full and gory background to the dead marshes.
