You can cheat though and download whole ebooks online for free using torrents etc, but I hardly ever do that as I appreciate knowing I've payed for my entertainment. If it's too expensive though I will!
..are they around the same cost as actual books then, Lewis..?..I somehow thought they would just be a £1 or something because I know downloaded music is much cheaper that a CD...

Some of them are a lot cheaper! I usually manage to spend about a fiver each time I go on there and that'll buy me about 3/4 books! The classics are all free, which is good! Some books are quite expensive, however, when you can usually find plenty of them in charity shops for 50p... the kindle forces you to buy them brand new, that's all! It's good for reading work from undiscovered authors, and there's pretty much something for everyone's tastes because of the wealth of material on there!

..oh, that's not such a bad price then, but yeah I get a lot of books for free because we have a book swap at work, although sometimes people are reluctant to let go of books so there isn't always a great choice...I might have a look at a Kindle, I think they should make you an Executive there, Lewis..you've done a good job of 'selling' me one.....

Ha that'd be the day

But seriously though, I know a lot of people like just having a physical copy of a book, but the Kindle is so portable it's great. You never lose your page... you can make the text bigger and smaller, change the text/page colour - it's great!

..yeah, it's definitely something I'm going to look at now Lewis, I think it would be a much better thing when you're travelling..(not that I travel very much..)...but I can see that I can probably have both and still sometimes read actual books if I can't get what I want on a Kindle...and there will be more room in my house.....

Even for the classics, it's worth it, as they are all free!

It's weird seeing my brothers and sisters as kids, and the house brand new. Soon we'll see baby me.

They all act the same way, even the ones who are supposed to be your mates.

I really am a bad judge of character. I got it wrong with this person. She clearly is not my friend. Oh well.

Family photo's are great... Parent's wedding video's are even better - nothing quite like watching your drunken grandparents attempt to dance to Dirty Dancing songs.

I'm always crying in my baby pictures. I hated having my picture taken.
