can be very nice especially if the weather's good. Probably a bit parky right about now. Main advantage is you avoid 99% of the tourists and the food at the Market is bloody good. then wander back to one of the many pubs for a pint, and the evening's sorted

TBH my fave London fast food experience is getting whatever's on offer at Greenwich Market then walking five minutes to the park at St. Alfege's graveyard. Oddly cathartic.

When I was running a store, I had to stock mostly known titles to stay in business. It takes fine judgement to work out how much is too much. I suppose the issue with chain stores is, you're not your own master. To a greater or lesser extent, you stock what they tell you.

WRT 8/10 - sure, stores can stock more. But each store has to balance risk/reward. That shelf space carries a cost; space in stock room carries a cost. If a product stays on the shelf or in storage, that means the store can't use the space for other stuff. It's a risk; question becomes,howmuch2much?

... Ken & Robin Talk About Stuff? Maybe? Not sure how long they've been at it but it feels like forever. Technically Penny Arcade, but I haven't paid attention to them in a while.

Do I know you? Unless you are holding treats, trust me, I do not know you.

I am Arthur, King of Britons, as I shall prove to all by pulling this stick out of my arse. (*grunt**oof*). I shall pull this stick ... (*grunt**oof*). New plan, people - the stick stays.

Hope this isn't a MtG-related injury. Those paper cuts can really sting. Good recovery, mate.

Definitely a better choice than Phenomeman.

If it's crime you want, the British Library does a good list of classic crime writing: shop.bl.uk/collections/...

at least as many times as there are letters in the word.

As a general rule, shorter is better. Tho I'd switch to Echoes of A Vanished ... rather than The Vanished.

I had no idea what this was till I looked it up. Somehow I can see you rocking a jade cigarette holder, Bond villain style.

mmm ... Dispatch?
