Just for fun, what names are printed on the spine of the ten books nearest to you, right now?

No cheating, just glance and type!

They're text books and manuals so mostly don't have first names - I can only offer a Jeff and an Ivor.

Oh, on the shelf below (DH's) there's a Patrick, Matthieu, Ringu, Chogyam, Geshe, Bertrand, Mick and Alan.

No, no - should have said, no surnames to distinguish the authors!

Grin Was it winged to you by Hermes and left in a sodden mush under someone's doormat, before reaching your bookshelf, by any chance?
