Ah, you know me so well. We’re both nerds in our own special ways.

It was down to my rather nerdy propensity for finding the locations of TV shows I like that we ended up here. I found the location on the net and, as we were in London on Sunday and we parked in Bloomsbury, I thought we’d have a look. The shop is Collinge & Clark rare and antiquarian books. I have no doubt we’ll be back there sometime when it’s open!

Blimey, we were pressing our little noses up against the front window of that shop last week, peering at the lovely edition of ‘The Waves’. I had no idea it was Black Books. How marvellous. I now want to go and play the piano with some spoons.

And Love Soup, Simon! You should definitely track that down if you haven’t already seen it. She’s fab.

I have only just gotten into Black Books and it is brilliant, but then again so is anything with Tamsin Grieg in it… The Archers… Green Wing… Emma… need I say more?

I love that show! I have it on my xmas list – I want the whole series on dvd. I think its brilliant that you found the shop from the show and I loved that they had a Woolf book in the window! Especially because I’ll be reading the Waves for the Woolf In Winter reading challenge. And kudos to you for not buying anything – I know how hard that can be! I’m restraining myself from making any bookish purchases prior to xmas, because I am counting on receiving some good reads this year. Loved your post! Cheers!

Black Books is alarming close to the truth!

I think this calls for a pilgrimage!
