SW London - book swap and meet up?

[BecauseImWorthIt]

Don't know if anyone would be interested in this.

I have a load of books that I need to get rid of (mainly low brow fiction!). Normally I take them to the charity shop.

It occured to me that there might be lots of other MNetters who do the same. Why don't we meet up and do a big swap? Any books left over could go to the charity shop as usual.

Would anyone be interested?

Is this a book swap or a booz up?

Are they mutually exclusive?!

I'm allergic to books.

I'm a south west Londoner (about 5 mins from Kingston Gate) with a book habit so would have loved to have joined you but..... am in Yorkshire for a wedding that weekend. Another time ?

I am SW but don't have any books to swap

Come along for the meet up anyway, TB?

WB - if I can get enough people interested in the book swap will definitely do it again. But so far I'm struggling with this!

As various people can't make August, I think it might be better to move this to September. What think you all?

September's fine as well but we may have to meet in a cafe.

can I come too? Can bring books (mainly trashy thrillers) can do august, after 14th

We could still meet up (without books) in August.

As we're having a meet up next Friday (assume it's still on?) can I suggest that we move the book swap thing to September, when those who do want to do the book thing are free?

We could always have another alcohol-only meet in August!

I shall put a stake in the ground, and suggest Friday September 12 as a book swap meet up.

Whose up for that? Put your name on the list

Still OK for me.

Fooled me with your abbreviated name!

Any suggestions as to where we should go? The original idea of a picnic is probably not feasible given the date/current weather!

I suppose it depends who'll be there, then we can decide whether to stick to Wimbledon or go further out, to Kingston or Teddington (as in the original plan).

Is it still on for book swap and or meet up in SW london? If so can I join. Am based in Wimbledon and have loads of books.

Definitely still on, as long as everyone agrees to it!

I'm in Merton Park, so not too far away - we could do something in Wimbledon?

So sign up if you're coming - date is Friday 12 September:
