No excuses

Guess what?  Sandie has sent me her address.  I have finally run out of excuses not to pass on this book.  She could at least have the decency to show some remorse at stealing it away from me.  But no, she seems far too happy to be getting it.  So I've had once last look through it, and put it in it's envelope and tomorrow I will be dragging my feet along to the post office to send it off.  There may be a slight tug of war over the counter as the post mistress tries to prise it from my hands and put it in the postman's sack for collection.  There may be some pouting and stomping and 'it's not fair' business going on.  
The post office also has a sweet counter.  I may need to stock up on chocolate as consolation to get me through the sadness of seeing the gap in my bookcase where the book used to be.  If I put weight on this week,  I hold Sandie personally responsible.
Just sayin'.

You're really made me laugh, Deb, I've loved your posts about parting with the book and I'm going to hide next time I see you as I shall feel so guilty that I have it!!!
Can't wait for the postman to call, providing the lady your end can wrestle it out of your hands!

Really made me smile! One of my favourite post offices is in a cafe, so I guess I could drown my sorrows in hot chocolate!

Poor Deb.... Look on the bright side, the gap on your bookshelf is an ideal place to stash a big slab of chocolate :)

You are too funny, I am expecting a photo taken by some bystander of the postmistress prying it from your hands and an appropriate expression on your face lol
