Stayed home, horrid weather, and I don't need
To go and get some books which was my plan
Got lots of new ones recently to read
The pile's so high, a literary mountain
Wanted to see the house the book sale's in
Elizabeth Gaskell's, down Plymouth Grove
But now I know it's monthly, so again
Maybe in March I'll check this treasure trove
Meanwhile today, my willpower finally drove
Me to advertise my spare room, through greed
Mainly - my bank account's sure on the wane
No chance of holidays, goin' on the rove
Until I trouser some dosh, so I'll plead
For some nice person to share my domain
