Thumbs intact

Underlay laid under successfully in about an hour and a half. The laminate flooring is taking . . . a little longer. I foresee a few gallons of midnight oil burning away here. If anyone tells you it's easy, that it's just click, click, click and it's done, hit 'em for me, will you? Better still, send 'em round here with a sharp saw and steel ruler.

Disappointed with a book I ordered from the US. I've waited months for it to arrive: James Barwick's 'The Kremlin Contract', as new with dustcover. I carefully removed it from the padded envelope to find it as new sans dustcover. Damn and bugger! Have sent a whinging email to the sellers, but don't hold out for much luck.
