Last updated: 18th March 2024
Receiving a registered book from Green Metropolis (no longer with us) and wanting to recycle more got me hooked on BC!
I've quickly learned that I need to spend more time reading and less time browsing the forums ;) Through BC I am starting to read more than my usual crime, mystery and thrillers.
For anyone wanting to send me something as a surprise, please contact Plum-Crazy who holds my address at all times. This is courtesy of the RABCK Address Contacts forum thread.
