I've just ordered 2 *more* books to add to my unfeasibly long to-read pile: A conventional boy by @cstross.bsky.social and Physics for cats by @tomgauld.bsky.social. Considering I've only got to the 2018 purchases in the pile, it'll be a while before I get to them. If only work didn't get in the way

I would read the hell out of a book series with a title like “All things wise and wonderful”, where a newly-qualified vet takes up a position in a country village only to discover that every single case he has to deal with is a magical creature and his partner in the vet practice is a dragon.

In 2007 we had a Rudd-slide. I guess they'll be calling this one the Albolance?
No?

Just had to say goodbye to Theo, desk monitor and hair stylist. 10 years old, diabetic and finally heart failure. Maybe now he will finally get outside.
