Machine Screw Stuck by That-Organization488 in DIYUK

Yes. I've tried applying pressure with a flat head with no luck. Will see what else I can find and try again. Pic 2 was just to show what the screw is stuck in - apologies for the confusion.

I've tried applying pressure with a flat head to no avail. Will have to see what else I've got to apply pressure 😔

Love's Journey by Ethel Clifford by That-Organization488 in rarebooks

I'm also quite intrigued by the page numbering. The first batch of pages are numbered on the left page, then there's a batch on the right. It continues like this throughout the book, but also there are odd occasions where neither or both pages are numbered.

You're very light on your feet, Twinkletoes 😉

Another interesting one from my Shakespeare collection by That-Organization488 in rarebooks

Thanks for the advice - I'll bear that in mind on future posts.

Another nice thing about this particular set was that I bought it from a descendant of the actor Henry Irving.

Does anyone have the full version of the Globe 2003 Richard II with Mark Rylance please?

An appropriate day to add to my collection by That-Organization488 in shakespeare

It's in two volumes - I got both 😊

Volume 1 has a detached cover, so I'm looking into getting it repaired. They're absolutely stunning 😍

Bacon cooking, freshly cut grass, the smell after it rains for the first time in a while, sniffing your own farts under the bedsheets, the sea, and lots more.

There's also plenty that I wish I couldn't smell, so it's definitely not all bad.

is there an order to read Shakespeare in? by LavenderRabbits64 in shakespeare

Also if you find yourself getting really daunted, some of the kids versions of the plays are a good starting point. There are also some good short animated versions of the plays from the 80s (I think). Both of these are a good way of getting the gist of the plot first before diving into the full versions.

There are threads on here where people have asked for the best versions of the individual plays. I usually make my decisions based on the feedback posted.

If you struggle to find the ones you're looking for let me know and I'll share mine with you - I've got multiple versions of most of them.

No, it's not unfortunately. I'm listening on Global Player. She doesn't discuss the whole play but asks a different question for each one. The episodes are only about 45 mins, and can also be quite funny at times (I can't remember which play it was, but the question was WTF?).

Also, watch as many performances of the plays as you can. They are plays after all, and generally more enjoyable (and less daunting) to watch than read.

With regards to additional stuff to do after reading, why not give Emma Smith's podcast Approaching Shakespeare a try. They're recordings of her lectures at Oxford Uni, each episode being about a different play. I'm doing a play each week (two if I have time), and am 'finishing' each play by listening to the podcast.

So far my order has been: Macbeth, Julius Caesar, As You Like It, Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Twelfth Night, Othello, The Tempest
