Meme time!

Stolen from Yonmei
* Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence along with these instructions on your LJ.
* Don't dig for your favourite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Or blog, in my case.

"Whopping Disaster". To make more sense, followed by - "Think how people in your time suffered from switching to an overrefined diet - cancer of the colon -"

From Marge Piercy's Woman on the Edge of Time. Very much recommended. Contains a good demonstration of how our body postures are affected by our socialised gender roles.

Link on!

I couldn't really follow your insane ramblings on this one, but here's what I found on p.56:

"These amounted to £32-9s-0d (£32, 9 shillings and no pence) from the mason, Christopher Rogers, and £18-19s-0d from the carpenter, Richard Torring."

That's what comes of having a coffee table book about our village on the...er...coffee table.

Strewth! When did I start having a coffee table?!

What insane ramblings? The first set of text if the instructions!

You're also meant to post your answer on YOUR blog Chris! so other people see it and then post on theirs, etc etc etc.
