Come the sprightly little lasses"
I found out yesterday at a costume fitting that I've gained a new part in this years summer drama. I've got to be a Vestal Virgin in a skimpy white floaty number, and I've got to gracefully frolic about daintily on a grassy sward.
Type casting this ain't!!!!

And make sure you've got your thermos flask with you.
A land based catalogue arrived for me in the post this morning, and as I've still got a bit of my book budget yet I pounced on it gladly. Now don't get me wrong, there are some rather good books included in it, it's just the video section in the back that had my .
Do I get my farmers Tractorspotting 1 + 2? Or should I perhaps splash out on 'Ferguson in the Dales - 30 Fergusons and other makes tackle the challenge of Dead Man's Hill, as part of a unique road run.'
Or perhaps I should see if the Scrapheap Challenge team have released a DVD of the latest series..... might be of more use.....

Tutors!!!!
I’m currently issuing a Library survey here on our little campus, and as the only member of library staff I’ve got the joyful job of processing the data for over 700 students and their tutors as well as trying to keep the library functioning. HO hum, fun and games and paper everywhere.
What dismays me are some of the answers returned of said surveys. A proportion of the groups have said they can’t find the books they need, on the same forms they have then acknowledged that they don’t ask for any help from the library staff ie. Me!!!! Is it any wonder they struggle!
Even worse have been the tutors I’ve been chasing for months to get reading lists and book requests from listing our range of books as bad.
*bangs head against brick wall*
On the plus side however all the tutors have classed me as being very helpful – and the students I spend hours chucking out of here after I find them turning our back room into a canteen have classed me as ok.
*sits back and waits for the notorious ND sports group to return its forms*
