Blather, Waffle and Poppycock!

A maths problem for you.

Nobby has 11 bookcases downstairs. Each one has 7 shelves, each one is 80cm wide.

Nobby spends two days tidying said bookcases.

Nobby takes about 2m of books to the charity shop.

How is it that Nobby still doesn't have enough book space?

You previously had lots of books hidden under the bed...There wasn't enough room for them on the bookshelves before ?

Cheers - Phil

No. Though that reminds me I've got another half dozen by the bed. 

[d_Guy]

Just passing through - but don't forget the two or three dozen squirrled away at work for the slack times.

Aw! Snap!

Didn't you know - Books breed faster than rabbits ?

Certainly do in my house.

When I revamped my bookshelves, I found at least 10 books I've never seen before.

Was one, How to improve your memory and the detrimental effects of licking walls ?

I have a similar problem with CD's and DVD's

Strangely ... no.

[fsn]

That is ... I don't think so. 

[Bodvoc]

easy, there are too many boxes of figures on the shelves already!

[howayman]

They stand upright, they don't lie flat.
Could that be your problem?

I have a suggestion for the next painting competition, which should even up the field.

Rather than the old, passe "let's sit in a warm room with good lighting and paint beautifully", let's go for some Extreme Painting. I suggest that the entrant has to have been painted in some extremly trying condition for example, whilst hanging off a cliff,  during a parachute descent, after 16 pints of Old Foot Rotter, in a rainstorm, or in the back of a Transit Van being driven up the M6 by a p***k who usually drives a BMW.

This, I believe would add a bit of spice to the competition. It would also have a very small deleterious effect upon my painting, so I would have more of a chance of winning.

Seconds?

Do they all have to be at the same time?
