I'm blitzing the office, would anyone like some Words?

Forty or so, 2007-ish on, I think. On their way to the doctors' waiting room unless someone pipes up. Collection from Brontecestershire mandatory.

good of you to offer Chris
Not at all.
Just having a clear out. Brutal really, but just ask 'have I looked at it since reading it the first time'? and 'will I read it again?' Simple answer - no, so off it goes. Along with the Words went three years worth of National Geographic (thought the school next door might like them, but no, countless photography magazines, hifi magazines etc... Boxes of the stuff. Thought the doctor/dentist might want to spruce up their tired selections of women's weeklies and Yorkshire Life, but again no. Just kept one issue back - July 2007. Not for the bcu of Leonard on the cover, but for the triple whammy of me being that issue's 'subscriber of the month' (that's one for the kids), having something in the letters pages and being the month I finally went deaf in one ear.
My dentist
has the Word magazine freshly delivered every month along with a selection of other magazines. I usually manage to find something I've missed or skimmed over while waiting and sometimes it's there before I have my own copy. I think the days of ragged old copies of Country Life magazines in the waiting room have gone.
Nice to see so many people having a clear out, I don't feel so bad about parting with my own possessions now.
It must be something in the air, as I'd have thought it's a bit early for spring cleaning yet.
'groovy dentist
is he generous with the laughing gas ?
Lucky you
I was in my dentist the other day and ended up leafing through a 2 year old copy of Hot Stars magazine.
Groovy, Word reading dentist?
Who ever heard of such a thing?
Nah.
figment of your imagination.
