Oh dear! I hope they at least took them to charity shops (or saved them for the next jumble sale...) if they couldn't sell them.
I'm awfully behind on LiveJournal (reading, I mean; I'm slowly catching up on posting, which is a bit selfish, I suppose -- sorry!) but have been catching up on reading your journal posts about weird & exciting Finnish stuff. Unfortunately I can never think of much to say except "Gosh!" and "That sounds cool". So maybe I should just say that a few times now... :-)
Anyway, I'm glad the move went okay, & I hope you're all settling in well by now. And if you want some more books over there, we can probably post some over -- it's not that we don't appreciate them (we do! we do!) but we are rapidly running out of space*... :-}
Meanwhile I look forward to reading more about your new experiences (and of course anything else you choose to write about!).
* This is a lie. We ran out of space about half an hour after moving in. We just haven't really admitted it to ourselves yet.
