Buying six old paperback copies of Ian Rankin novels and rationing my reading to one or two chapters a night has saved my sanity. But the thought of those reserves, sitting on the shelf waiting for me to come pick them up is depressing. The printout with my name in big black letters must be fading in the sun, how will they know they are mine, when eventually the council get their click and collect system running? Or will they be able to work it out from the remnants the 'ara Mich' left on the bit buried inside the pages? As for the two caught in the interdimensionality of the transfer system I worry about the ominous 'Transit Overdue' notice, both of those are science fiction after all...
Ours were all 'paused' down here until lockdown ended & then they continued once that ended.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
