[Farseer]

I shifted house once, many, many years ago, and had boxes and boxes of books destroyed after they were driven about 100kms into town through a summer thunderstorm. I didn't want them taken that night. I wasn't in the car. I had no clue as to what was happening until days later. The driver was a relative who, though happy to do a good deed for me, obviously either did not value books or did not have the brains to consider books + rain = problem...and he remains to this day 'relative', not 'friend'. So many books...

I also had boxes of photos and film, including baby pics of my eldest children, destroyed by a brother who decided to leave the house door open and let the lawn sprinkler in, and then left the premises for the rest of the day...

I have never, though, had a problem with books warping in a bathroom despite the fact that I have super hot baths and always forget to open the windows. Possibly it has something to do with our Australian climate...?!
