Happy World Book Day Everyone!

Oh ok

Utterly bizarre opinion.

sorry maybe that was a little too dry.

that’s the trouble with the written word.

TMNT started as a comic, so you can possibly get away with it in the same way as Batman.

There was a post on a local facebook group last night from a desperate mum asking if anyone had a batman book her son could borrow for school today.

where’s the down-vote button??

I left my son at breakfast buddies arguing with his buddy about what does and doesn’t constitute a farmer’s hat.

Happy book day everybody!

Also: quite annoyed seeing kids dressed up as various jedi.

Books based on films shouldn’t count, dammit!

The novelisation of Star Wars came out before the film.

(I assume this is a lie but I’d swear it blind to you if my child was dressed as a Jedi.)

lol

World of Rare Books has 30% off everything for World Book Day FYI. I always feel a bit xylo when I pick something up from there.

Which bit of him do you feel?

His translucent skin.

Prefer mine well done with ketchup.

I don’t remember this being a thing when I was in school but apparently it was. Had an aversion to fancy dress even as a child so maybe I have just blocked it out.

This really wasn’t a thing when I was at school, but then I am quite old. None of your fancy Harry Potter costumes would be appropriate. We would all have to dress as those things you see in the margins of illuminated manuscripts.
