    Excellent ebay news! Also glad to hear how well the Marian Keyes event went. We occasionally have author visits at the library but as I'm always working (in the library) I always miss them!

  • Well, a bit of a mixed week so far. Got a major project over the line yesterday with 50 minutes to spare which was good. Made a formal complaint against a colleague which was not so good. I can cope with laziness and stupidity but this one bawled out a junior member of my team in a public place. I tried speaking to her about it and she was totally irrational. I just cannot accept bullying.

    Today I'm having to go in on my non working day but this afternoon I'm off with a colleague for facials and afternoon tea courtesy of a living social voucher. I don't care if my face breaks out and the tea is horrible. It's been ages since we have had a chance of a catch up.

    Currently I am grateful for
    My team. We may bicker and squabble but we all have each other's back
