- Winston Churchill
I had a chance to put this in practise today. One of my fellow workers is leaving to move to another office and I was pondering a going-away gift. Last night I heard about The Weekend Book, a compendium of useful tips, poetry, wisdom, recipes, and games to make for a perfect weekend written by Francis Meynell in the 1920ies.

It's just been reprinted and the description made it sound perfect for a friend who enjoys old things and attending flea markets. Went online and discovered the local Chapters had 24 copies so I went there this morning just after they opened and bought one even though the price is $5 above that online. I was gladdened to be able to make the gift and even more gratified to have my intuition confirmed when my friend expressed absolute delight with it.

An excellent sentiment and recommendation! Thanks for the advice. (Just a fellow blogger passing through via a random "Next Blob" tour.)
