1. How difficult is it to find unfurnished rental property in London? We haven't looked. Our next door neighbor says it's nearly impossible.
   
2. Can you recommend me an edition and/or translation of the Legenda Aurea?
   
3. If I were to invest in, say, a used paperback of the Canterbury Tales (because my Riverside Chaucer is back in the states and really hard to get to...), what edition would you recommend?

I was intrigued to be given the wrong book at the BL today - and then discover that the reason I'd been given that one is because it was on reserve for a J. Worthen. My last name's rare enough that that was rather exciting. Also, no matter how many times I use microfilm machines, I always feel slightly inept with them. Today's struggle was to feed the film through in the first place - despite having done it many times before in the past, and despite printed instructions on the machine itself to remind me.
