As asked for by Vicroty Noob, here is a pic of the beanie I was talking about on Wednesday.
If you want to see it on my scone, you'll need to either turn up to a game and try and pick out who I am, or try and figure out my traveling patterns. The photo has some clues. The books from the left hand side up to Tennessee Williams are all high school texts, with the exception of The Removalists and The Blinder. The two thickish books in the middle are from my cheap books from the Reject Shop phase, a long time ago. There's some poetry books there, The Inland Sea by John Jenkins, Abena Busia's Testimonies of Exile, Thom Gunn's The Sense of Movement, and Tim Thorne's brilliant Letter to Egon Kisch. The books which are facing the wrong way are Christos Tsiolkas' Dead Europe - fucking read it if you haven't already - Death of the Lucky Country by Donald Horne, and Self Publishing Made Simple by Euan Mitchell. There's also on the right hand Neil Boyack's Transactions, and Paul Mitchell's Dodging the Bull, both more than worth a look.
And if you were wondering how did that soft beanie stay upright like that, well inside it was being held up by this thesaurus in picture below with some more books there, with more clues.

A few notes on comments.
We've had a lot of fun over the years with my freewheeling comments policy, but all good things must come to an end. Therefore I will no longer be approving comments that contain personal abuse of any sort.
Still, if your post doesn't get approved straight away, it's probably because I haven't seen it yet.
