and what else?...well, the following video won't play upon my laptop (it doesn't do 'flash' for safety reasons) and so I have no idea what it is all about...however, what it reminds me of...LOL...is the other week, whilst in Clacton library...there were large signs up, upon so many of the shelves....stating "BLACK FRIDAY - BORROW ONE, GET ONE FREE!"...the two assistants-at-the-desk were to tell me that it had gone down "like a leaden balloon" with the clientele...one of them told me that she hadn't been in for a while and so when she had first walked in, she hadn't known what it was all about and so assumed that etc etc...anyway, apparently it was a 'joke' around all of the books being 'free' which was then...subsequently misinterpreted by 'just about everybody'...and I stood there thinking...Essex libraries are fighting closure, all over the shop...and so does this one, want to stay open or not?...go figure:
