London is currently host to a 40 foot, time travelling Mechanical Pachyderm;

I am stuck in this Saturday waiting for someone who wants to see one of the rooms in the house, which puts me in an ethical quandary since it’s a room I want. The landlord, who is neither so pious he, merits my extraordinary support or so heinous that I should undermine him, has trusted me to show her the room and “sell it”. If she doesn’t want it, I get it at a knock down rate.
It would be wrong to show her my room and then just move into the new room…wouldn’t it?
Would you believe that almost every bookshop in London I have checked does not stock a copy of the The Last Unicorn? I am trying to buy it as a gift for a girl at work (don’t get excited people) but despite being a “classic” no where seems to have one. Well, I’ll try Folyes tomorrow but if they fail me…ack!
