The continuing story of Josh and Megan, now in the land of tea and beer.
Time for the results of our previous guessing game...
Number of bookshelves in our Lion-the-witch-and-the-wardrobe-esque house: 45
Number of hanging items on the walls between the front door and out flat: 68
So well done Waldo! You even got the number of hanging items right, good job!

What did you guys do to figure out the number of bookshelves? I like to imagine you creeping around the house at night with a flashlight (torch, I suppose, since it's England) or, even better, on a gloomy afternoon during a thunderstorm.
Lots of book shelves leads me to wonder...how many books are there in that house?
Ugh. I dare not think of counting those books.
But as for actually counting the shelves there was a week our landlord was gone and I just started at the bottom and worked my way up. It was kind of fun!
