OEDear ...

I accidentally attended a book sale today, but was very restrained and only purchased language books that I actually need for my appalling French and Italian, and a couple of history tomes, which are [Poll #1580212]And lil, thank you for your comment! I had to delete and start again because the poll was not working for me, hope it does this time!

Even though I chose to make a comment on the state of the world in this poll (there was no option that said of course you should get it and don't forget to claim it as a tax deduction!), I think you should get it - after all, its the OED! I think it belongs on your book shelf or I could look after it for you (and congratulations on being so restrained with your other purchases), and if you really need a reason - well if you had a copy then I could come visit it :) because frankly the Macquarie is driving me NUTS! And reading through this reply you can see how badly I need the guidance of the OED!
