Then I found a second-hand copy in a box that I had obviously bought for them several years earlier, but not yet given them. And when I bought both of those, I also knew I still, probably, had a copy somewhere at my parents, although since it was also my big brother's he might have taken it. So, three second-hand copies... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18331#post-265593 Sat, 04 Nov 2017 15:51:04 +0000 gembo 265593@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I have this mostly with bke kit but may well have several,copies of the same book both in good order. Many DVDs not watched. Fugue that comes over you when buying on line or in shop induced sometimes by a bargain or other subliminal desire.

In addition to discovering ever more spare sets of handlebars, mysterious bits of plastic that were probably kept on the grounds they were an important part of something-or-other, and unexpected stashes of Ikea STOPP non-slip rug matting, I keep finding books I had forgotten I owned. This is a small flat. I've sorted through all my books at least once since I moved here in 2015. How does this <em>happen</em>?</p> <p>Current theory: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BbE4jJ6DoZS/?hl=en">some sort of wormhole to the media studies section of a bookshop in Canada.</a> </p>
