You can never have enough...

I'd put a hold on a book - The cat who saved the library because it sounds interesting & a light-ish read which I decided would make a nice change. So when they emailed me that it had arrived I called in to collect it...but alas, not on the holds shelf. So, asked a librarian for help. She checked all of the shelf in case it had been put under another alphabet letter, nope, not there.
So then another librarian joined the search, checked out the back, checked under the non fiction hold shelf - nowhere in sight.

So having asked if I minded a wait (are they mad - there are books?!) they apparently turned  the entire library upside down & eventually discovered that it had somehow been put on the wrong trolley when returned & so was among shelved as usual books.
Librarians are brilliant.

The book had better be truly excellent...

Here they used to [pop a piece of paper with your name on it, into the book and put on the holds shelf. 

I guess the rediculous Privacy act [perhaps stopped that.)

So Now they are put on numbered shelves and if you dont remember the name of the book and which shelf its on, your in trouble lol.  I've learnt to write it down from the email so I can find them. Easy yesterday cos they were two parts of the  Tattooist series. I had the third part first. But the two yesterday were on different shelves. not sure why lol.

Ill just renew them if Im slow. 

I've seen my old geography teacher in there twice already. He also has Coffee with Annie from the home and the one I gave the ornament to The Summer Santa, he's not spoken since but he does love it apparently lol. 

Ohh Apparently Colleen is getting transferred to Wellington. her daughter told Dianne.. I kind of hope she wont want to see us before she goes. It will be hard. Cos then we will probably see Annie as well. 

Im not mentioning it to David. Will see if he knows and how he handles it

So now I have to juggle my hobbies, lol Games, Painting and reading and the need to sew at some stage too. To make new tri pillow cases.. 

Life is tough when you have soo many choices lol..
