Yesterday, I had occasion to visit the church hall near here (it was
the bell ringing striking competition at the church next door), and I
was idly looking through the second hand books for sale (as you do),
and I bought a few. When I got them home I noticed that one of them
had a "Book-crossing" sticker inside, so I looked up the number on the
site at www.bookcrossing.com, and it turns out that the person who
"released" the book into the "wild" was called Beebarf, who, if I'm
not much mistaken, is our very own Anna (the one with the Hermit,
remember?). Now that is a coincidence.

that's cool and strange all at the same time.

I'd love to hear how they are doing.
I released a book once but it never turned up on the Crossing thingy
so I lost interest :-/
