Books, bits, bobs and the occasional cat…
Good afternoon, bookworm, it’s lovely to see you again! Do come in and have a seat. There seemed to be a lot of fuss in the media last month about there July bringing an extreme heatwave in the UK yet the only heat around here lately is the scorching plot in the book I’ve recently […]
Read MoreGood afternoon bookworm, do come in. As promised on your last visit, I’d like to tell you all about the next instalment in the Sam Applewhite series by Heide Goody and Iain Grant: Doggerland. Firstly, here’s the blurb: There’s something wrong at the Otterside Care Home. When Sam Applewhite tries to help a friend who’s […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, do come in! Summer solstice has passed and it’s the first day of July so I’m struggling a little to keep the peace in the bookshelves today since the Christmas books have gotten themselves rather overexcited; they are insisting they should have the most prominent spot in the library to help people […]
Read MoreGood 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 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 MoreGood morning, bookworm, do come in. Can I get you some hot toast with butter on? The dragons have been a little overactive with spring being in the air so I set them the task of toasting my bread. With any luck, they’ll wear themselves out while we sit and have a catch up. So, […]
Read MoreGood morning, bookworm, what a lovely surprise. Come in and have some breakfast with me. Watch you don’t trip over the old typewriter on the floor; I’m still trying to find a home for it where I can use it easily but where the Modern Technology books won’t interfere with it. They’ve been rather scathing […]
Read MoreWelcome bookworm, it’s lovely to see you. It may be gloomy outside today but inside my warm little book nook, all is cosy and snug. I love how books allow you to escape from the darkest of days to all corners of this world or others. And not just via the Travel books, although they’ll […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, it’s lovely to see you again. Now, you may need to duck a little as you come through to the library; I was digging around in the old attic just out of curiosity, and came across some old, foil Christmas decorations like the ones I remember my mum hanging up when I […]
Read MoreGood afternoon, bookworm, please come on in from the wind – oh, your hat! Don’t worry, the cat is chasing it and I’m sure he’ll bring it back soon. We just need to keep an eye out for him returning or he’ll stash it somewhere, never to be seen again. There’s tea in the pot […]
