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!

Clearly you should own this dictionary! However, I think instead of getting it at the book sale, you should use your wily international travel network to get it from the U.K. to you. Because, really, what use is an international network of slahsers if they can't occasionally come through with a dictionary?

It's SO heavy, it would take up a sizable amount of luggage space. But you are right, I should at least consider the whole trek back from UK with one possibility. Alas, it involves luring people here so they can have it in their less-full outward bound luggage, and no bastard ever comes to visit me!
