I were in Library this afternoon as well, but you would'nt see me, I was in the storeroom looking at stuff you would'nt get to see.

And don't start huffing and puffing about priviliges,
I've seen 3 librarians and countless staff retire from the library over the past 40 odd years, and contibuted a lot of historical info and photos, I've got from various public record offices around the country.

Retlaw.
