[Peter Fels & Phoebe Palmer]

Neat!!!
I remember endless hours staring at the bloody clock or out a small window at a smoggy sky, waiting, too screwed up to read.
OK then;
How bout blacksmith centered erotic fiction?

hello peter;

audiobooks break the boredom of laying in a hospital bed inspecting the
ceiling while waiting for some scapel jockey to remove the external
fixators from the legs. then there is the boredom of sitting in a
wheelchair for days, weeks, months, years, on end.

the VA hospital had a good collection of science fiction.

I listened to the Doctor Who audiobooks from the BBC and from Big Finish
Productions. I have something like 500 audiobooks (actual media) from
Big Finish Productions. there are several Doctor Who audiobooks which
have blacksmiths.
