terrysibe Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Guess I'm a bit of a boffin - 49/100. I read all the time and always have - usually about 2 books a week. Best form of relaxation there is - husky in your lap and book in your hand! Mick Whoops - didn't realise Terry had logged in on my computer - mind you, she reads more than me!

I read all the time . . . . at work, in queues at the post office, public transport. and my favourite. . . in the bath. I cannot remember the last day when I did not read a chapter or two from a book. I rarely read newspapers, unless someone leaves one lying around at work. Prefer. . . . Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, & Thrillers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
