Irresponsible

I feel bad about this. I've just placed another order at Amazon.

Keen to take advantage of my trip to London on Friday I headed over to Sicilian and my favourite tech bookshop. The PC Bookshop has become a café. Actually, it's become virtual: holbornbooks.co.uk.

Another bookshop was my favourite during my student days. Last time I was there it didn't look so healthy and this evening I learnt that the Modern Book Company on Praed Street has also closed.

The first floor of Folyles is the last place I know in London with anything like a decent selection of IT books. How long before it too succumbs to the wide, fast-flowing river?

In the meantime I'm not exactly helping. I must learn to plan ahead a bit more. Buy books from the sellers that love them.
