One man's treasures is another's trash. At the Prestons area near Liverpool there was a place called Trash and Treasures, like a flea market where we found all sorts of valuable stuff that were only being got rid off by their ex-owners. Amazing.

I love books. I have five book shelfs filled. Some first edition of the ancient writers. Today, I wonder when I am gone Andrew.

You left the reader with something to think about.
