I was about to quickly catalogue the books and DVDs we got for Christmas, but after a 30-second Google I can't find an online book database. If I wanted to provide links to movies I'd use the wonderful Internet Movie Database, does anyone know a database for fiction and non-fiction books?

Lots of cool presents (funky shirts, DVDs, books) and lovely food -- a wonderful tuna steak on the 25th, and salmon on the 26th (Vicky's family is vegetarian).

Christmas good news included a rebate from overpaying the phone bill, and my sister getting engaged. Good luck to her and Elliott!

In two hours time I'll be out again for a few days, off to my mum's to see them for a while. Tomorrow will be my second Christmas, which will be fun. ;-)

Finally, I just got some colour and B&W photos back from the developers (Boots do reasonable B&W developing for £8), I'll try and get them scanned on my Dad's scanner. I have a horrible feelings certain pictures of me will be the incentive Vicky needs to start creating her own web site...
