Yeah, the series is getting too long (in fact I have a whole pile more).

I tend to try and not re-arrange a series if I don't have to in order to
avoid breaking things by accident when shuffling them around. But yes, I
could avoid some things by folding and re-ordering.

Dunno, maybe if I'm forced to do another round :/
