We still have quite a selection here still though. I buy pretty much all my books from charity shops.

Charity shops are full of naff shit though, like an entire family's library of VHS tapes and horrible 1980s blazers. The books are typical of Britain's imbecile populace, twatfest autobiographies and pictures of cars with a foreword by Jeremy Clarkson. Looking for anything worthwhile is like looking for a needle in a haystack- though sometimes they put the best of the bunch behind the counter, like a dented trumpet (£50).
This opinion is hugely biased on account of me spending most- if not all- of my childhood in a fucking charity shop.
