Still in my pyjamas at 9:15am August 25, 2011

Once again I have been neglecting my blog rather shamefully. This does not mean I have not been blogging though. As part of my library studies this term I am maintaining a blog for activities and reflection on a weekly basis. I stole the title from Doctor Who – Silence in the Library. I am […]

Easter in August August 13, 2011

They have Christmas in July so why not Easter in August? At least that’s what my mother decided when she found the Easter present she had bought me earlier in the year while she was cleaning out her patchwork material. So as I was leaving their house last night after some yummy dinner we wished […]

free shirt and cap

I am up bright and early for a Sunday morning. This is because some weeks ago I blithely agreed to “man” a stand at our campus Open Day. That day is today. As you might imagine now the day has arrived I am less enthused. So now I have to shower and dress in my […]

It’s Friday…Bob Dylan says so August 5, 2011

And we all know that if his Bobness says so it must be true. Today indeed was Friday. Not just any Friday but the last Friday of official work for an entire week. I finally gave in and took a week’s holiday. I have been desperately trying to save up my holidays to take a […]
