Hi,

I noticed that whenever I travel in bus,train or a plane..I often try to borrow books from others to read. Just wanted to know if any of the ranchers here have a similar tendency to borrow books ?

Thanks
Ayub

I already have too many unread books of my own; no need to borrow.

Hi...,

While travelling I never borrow books, newspapers ect, what I do is that I used to peep into their reading...thus jump on their nerves... after a while they will give me the book and will start looking outside the window,

Sometimes they wont even ask the book back... I have quite a collection of borrowed books....
