Going to the Library

Striding forth in the autumn sunshine the other day, we were asked by a genial gentleman, "Where are you off to this morning?"

We answered. "To the library."

"What?" he said, "do people still go to the library?"

When I told this to a Pointless pal, she said, "At least he didn't ask 'What's a library?'"

We are happy to report that there are still many library habitués, and not only for free computer time. There are, indeed, people still borrowing books.

As we have often said, the card we would least like to lose is our library card.

We would also like to say that we have paid enough in fines to stock an entire row of library shelves. And happy so to do.
