You go to the library for a book you really want to read and the only copy they have has something sticky on the cover. What do you do?

Full of germs.....think about it. All those books taken to people houses then sneezed and coughed on.  then there's the people who die when they are reading, the ones who read on the loo and the ones who get egg everywhere.

i love libraries and I know how hard the staff work to ensure that sticky, nasty deposits on books are removed or the book replaced.


However, if this happened to me I would go to Waterstones and buy a copy!

Is it a book about sticks, perchance?

Yes but they tend to have skinny women behind the counter going on about their diets!

Lou, what is the book that you really wanted to read?

There isn't one. It was just something I thought we could discuss. My phobias won't allow me to go the library.

I like libraries. I used to take my boys there regularly when they were little. We waded our way through loads of kids books, story tapes and videos.


I have also often promoted the library service through work. Where else can you get free access to the internet? Bargain!


Great for people on benefit for job hunting when they simply don't have the funds for computers or internet at home.

Blimey! As if by magic my computer 'threw me out' immediatley as I posted that last one!


Do you think it wants me to keep quiet about free internet access?

What about money Lou, do you handle cash? It's probably changed hands more times than a library book.

Yes cash worries me too and I prefer to use plastic. I do scrub my hands well when I have been shopping. Am I freaking you all out ? I'm not a nutter .
