Aren’t libraries great? Have you ever been to one? You can pick up anything there, videos, newspapers, computers, adverts for street walkers, or rather dog walkers, and even books sometimes.
It was my friend Senga asked me to return the book she’d finished with, Twentieth century poisons and poisoners it was called.
“Not feeling too good luv, think I’ll take a wee lie down,” she said.
But when I left she was rummaging through the kitchen cupboards and muttering to herself. It didn’t matter because I’d already had a look and decided that a book would come in handy.
