    You can get kindle unlimited and you can read as many books as you like and I think I it’s €9.99 a month or it could be less

    A lot of online bookstores have free books, if they are past a certain age you can download them for free, might be old books, but some great classics are free, I know this from my reading addict Mrs. Don't know if this is any help Purple but if it is good luck.
    Watching TV and having a cuppa, time for bed soon goodnight all.

    I've never paid anything for it.

    I subscribe to an optional thing called Kindle Unlimited which lets you read quite a lot of books for nothing. Apart from the subscription fee which is a few £'s a month, I think. Apart from that I only pay for books that aren't offered under that service.

    Goodnight everyone.
    Thanks to all for the book advice because I'm really lost without the library and I'm home from work for the foreseeable too so need to adapt my reading habits.
    I tried Borrowbox but it's not accepting my usual log in details so my library has an email service going so I've sent a query but if that fails I'll explore the other options.
    Thanks to boards.ie for keeping people connected during this time.
    I'm really missing my work and seeing extended family like aunts, cousins and of course friends but this website makes me feel less lonely.
    Good night.

    To thine own self be true

    Mak. I thought tattoos would be a nono in your line of work or would that just be visible ones?

    Neck and hands only.

    I've tattoo's on my arms, shoulders, legs, back and chest.

    The leg tattoo's you can see here are a Judo and part of a Led Zeppelin tattoo.

    So started Ozark, love it.. Highly recommended.

    Sitting by the fire. Rubbing Coconut oil into my poor sore hands. Heading down the YouTube rabbit hole.
