What is next, the same names, see if that would not
cause confusion, I have just ordered the third editions of parts two and three,
for the extra text etc, and hope to get them shortly.
I have my name down for the re-publishing ot the
Cleasby Vigfusson Job - from the OUP but I have to think of a better
excuse other than sheer self-indulgence.
BTW, do you know anyone else who reads a dictionary
and traces here and there like a person stepping on the stepping stones, I am
minded of a Wiccan Ritual - "From a word I am led to a Word and from a Deed to
another Deed", you can never have too many books, so your dwelling be on good
foundations

I hotly deny it - it is untrue I have never sunk a
building with my books It is a lie

Yes, you're right, Patricia, of course. I
recently got a flyer from
the Viking Society advertising the 3rd editions
of the reader and
glossary (Maybe you did too?). I think that's what
led me astray.
Well, that's my excuse anyway. Sulks: why can't
everyone just have
the same name. Save ourselves a lot of
confusion...
