I have a weakness for old books, the smell and feel of the do something for me. redface:

I have just purchased a very old copy of Dombey and Son. cloud9:

What do other VPers have a panchant for and why.

It will be the swim wear round after this so beware. eeek:

Books here too. I often buy old books or even sets of books as an "investment" but can never part with them ~ even those I lend out I hope to get back. I hate using the library because the books have to go back. redface:

I failed to gain custody of my first book collection. Didn't have room for it in the car when I moved out and when I returned to get it and other things every last item had been sold or tipped. I was not happy particularly as "promises" had been made as part of the agreement to part and give her the family home but I moved on and am now happily surrounded by books again tho' still hunting for copies of those I "lost".

Apart from that I have a weakness for a pretty face (so God alone knows how I ended up married to those I did neither of whom could be described as "pretty")

I don't swim.

Frankly I don't give a flying f*ck if she does. Eavesdroppers never hear well of themselves be they virtual eavesdroppers or otherwise.
Obviously I found both wives attractive but pretty? That's a whole different ball game.
