I’m sorry to say I had to close the shop a few months ago – but thanks to all of you who supported it while it was there. A book exchange in the City of London proved financially unviable in the current economic climate I’m afraid. Shame!

Totally agree with the ‘customer’ although I’ve gone on further to where only borrowed library books give me the horn.

[Q] From Jennie Booth, Australia: I came across the phrase ” giving it some welly” in a BBC report today. I’ve not seen it before and am somewhat curious about its meaning. Can you help?

[A] It’s a fine bit of British English slang, usually in the form “give it some welly”. This instruction, often shouted to a youth or indeed, any sort of hardy,earnest, well intentioned individual, is an exhortation employed for the purposes of encouragement or criticism,and asks for more effort to be put into whatever he or she is doing

Glad to hear the old London is coming back, at least a little bit. Aside from a lot of empty condos – there’s some talk of turning them into affordable housing units but we’ll see if that happens or not – New York remains greatly under wraps. But another year of this – who knows?
