Books, bits, bobs and the occasional cat…
Good afternoon, bookworm, do come in! I’m indoors today doing some much needed dusting of the photographs dotted around the library. I hadn’t realised just how many have been photo-bombed by dragons, cats or piles of books which had sneaked off the shelves and into the background of the shot. Actually, photo-bombing makes me think […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, do come in! Did you manage to see the eclipse this morning? The Science and Astronomy books have been excited for days and were most aggrieved by the clouds blocking their view. I often think of what it must have been like for people hundreds of years ago who saw an eclipse […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in. Excuse the strange smell in the mystical library today; I asked the Natural Health books to make me a salve for my sunburn (the perils of spending lots of time reading indoors – I burn like a vampire when I do venture out!) and I suspect the Humour books […]
Read MoreWell, hello there, bookworm! It’s so lovely to see you again. I hope you weren’t knocking at the door long before you came and found me in the garden; I thought it was high time I tidied up the mystical garden. Just watch your fingers as you walk past the snap dragon plants – they […]
Read MoreWelcome bookworm, it’s so lovely to see you again! You must have heard the sound of the kettle whistling on the stove ready for me to pour a warming cup of tea. Can I tempt you to Manchester tart, still a little warm from my baking this morning? Ooh, speaking of Manchester, let me tell […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in and sit in your favourite chair. It’s the first time this year that I haven’t built up a cosy log fire and have opened the top stable door instead to hear the birdsong. Ah, I can see you’re looking puzzled by the sound of the sea despite being nowhere […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, it’s so lovely to see you again. Here, pass me your wet coat and I’ll leave it by the baby dragon nest to dry; it’ll be perfectly safe there as they’re too young to produce flames when they sneeze yet but it’ll be toasty warm by the time you’re ready to put […]
Read MoreHello there, bookworm, come in out of the rain. You’re just in time for some freshly baked chocolate chip cookies which I took out of the oven a moment ago. They’re the perfect treat on a miserable day, like a sweet hug for your tastebuds. Here’s a hot cup of tea to go with them […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm! Can you believe it’s the middle of April already? Apparently the weather hasn’t got the message that it’s spring time yet and keeps surprising me with frost and snow. It’s even worse in my mystical library as the Weather Books have had yet another fall out with the Gardening Books, so they’re […]
Read MoreHello bookworm, it’s lovely to see you again! Please excuse the sand on the floor; I took a well earned break from my usual duties and, with the help of the Travel Books, visited many beautiful places. A benefit of being a Keeper of Books in a mystical library is I get to travel to […]
