One of the funniest and bizarrest books ever. Basically a dictionary of place names given obscure meanings for things that have no word in every day language. If you don't laugh at some of them you have no soul!
For some reason your post reminded me of The Meaning of Liff by Douglas Adams.

The way people stand when examining other peoples bookshelves.
That book never fails to make me laugh.
Working shifts my sleeping pattern is completely messed up. I woke up at 15.00 yeasterday and it's now 5.20 in the morning. I'll have a few hours sleep today and then hopefully get to sleep at a reasonable time tonight so I can enjoy my Saturday.
What's your favourite piece of classical music?
I find it hard to get rid of books as well unless I really didn't like them and then I just add them to the charity shop pile.
I think I like the idea of the library room as well ions although I do reread. In fact I would love a room full of shelves of books and DVDs (my other vice). I'm...
About 12 hours. Home to the Outer Hebrides off the coast of Scotland. Think I slept for most of it.
Where did you go to get some peace and quiet as a teenager/child?
Agreed on that one.
When I was a nipper some of my favourite books were
The Mr Men books
The Faraway Tree series by Enid Blyton
Pretty much all the Roald Dahl books
The Owl Who was Afraid of the Dark
Where the Wild Things Are
The Box of Delights
The Chronicles of Narnia
The Call of...
Ah but do you remember Dangermouse or Count Duckula? Dreamstone or The Mysterious Cities of Gold?
Mr Rogers was never shown on British TV as far as I know. Though I have seen clips on TV over the years it was usually the same one were he was singing after he got home from work.
I've been meaning to buy a new fatter, harder pillow for a while now. I have one and it practically blends in with the mattress it's so thin. Pointless really.
What is your favourite board game?
Renee.
It must have fallen out of the sky like at the end of Magnolia. Don't worry Renee all those little coincidences in your life will soon make sense! ;)
4 and a half hours left of work. Then it's home to bed for a few hours and then enjoy a couple of days off before I come back for...
The Big Read Top 100
Here is the top 100. Granted it's a British poll but what in there is overrated? On a side note how many have you read?
I think in a few years time Harry Potter will have slipped down a bit but like I said TLOTR will stay up there I think.
It came number one in a recent British TV poll so quite a lot of Brits would say it is top 100. I think the Big Read poll took place about the time FOTR came out at the cinema so the hype was beginning but I still think it would have won.
