Do you buy used books?Do you use a library?Do you pass them on to others?I find the library sometimes can't get the books I want Do others have that problem?#usedbooks#sustainablereads

So, because the Wales v Australia match was not on TV, I decided to tidy up my messy book shelves.(They look worse now!😳)I couldn't resist reading bits of a lot of them. 😁I am sharing just one! I rarely read novels but this is an absolute favourite, which went on to become a play.The Curious Incident of a Dog in the Nightime by Mark Haddon#Books #Reading

@clive I had been looking for a book for years because it is so expensive for me. Very surprised to finally buy it from a Tunbridge Wells Oxfam shop for £8.99. Privatising The World by Oliver LetwinNormally over £40 used and £60 plus new.Even,the local library could not supply it for me. I believe much of the content of this book has already happened 😥#Books #Reading #Politics

Finally, my book arrived after years of searching for it. I paid £8:99.I found this book in an Online Oxfam shop, after years of searching. I could not afford to buy before. (Used Amazon £72:97Used AbeBooks £46:03)This is why I wanted to read it and why I want to stop privatising the world. We only have to look at our world to see the damage it's done to ordinary people.👇https://www.centreforpublicimpact.org/case-study/privatisation-uk-companies-1970s/Hope I have done this right @jas@twt.cymru

I am a retired nurse since 2006. I worked for 12 years in A&E followed by 20 years as a Nurse Practitioner in General Practice.It was pressured then but we have now had 12 years of austerity, Brexit, COVID 19 and whatever the Westminster Government claim about all these extra nurses. Where are they? "This was how one nurse in her 40s described an Accident and Emergency (A&E) department to me, and it sounded all too familiar."https://theconversationuk.createsend1.com/t/r-e-tjdllyuk-odriktudyt-r/#NHS#Cymru#Wales#YesCymru

Thinking of all the miners worldwide which includes women. I can't imagine what it must have been like, to worry about your loved ones working down the mines.There are better ways to produce energy.https://youtu.be/H5QeTGcCeug#Climate

We are getting on in years and I tell my husband if I pop my clogs first, he must find another woman but I will replace him with one of these big cats! 🤣 Hubby is allergic to fur so I can't have one now but his name is Sylvester 😁 🐱 My contribution to Caturday. Maincoon catsThese cats grow quite large, have a gentle nature, are excellent mousers & they are very popular pets in north AmericaTheir fur is very thick and protects them in colder climates.#Caturday

@gemlog So, my daughter just sent me this. It's the Reading Community Gospel Choir singing HAPPY!My daughter is Caroline. She has black curly hair and an orange top. They move the boxes around when they sing but she is either second in on top right or second in on bottom left. And she is a beautiful brown girl! Of course they are all stunning but I am a very proud Mum 🥰#Gospelhttps://youtu.be/oBzjXUEv67g
