It has taken me 10 drawing pins, a tack hammer, a screwdriver & a pair of pliers to put up my panorama poster of the Plas Newydd mural. The drawing pins kept bending/breaking (& I can't find one that went on the floor), & I haven't got enough push in my thumbs, so needed the hammer; had to use a screwdriver to lever one out that was in the wrong place; and the pliers to remove one that broke off the head leaving the pin in the door. But!

#ThingsFoundInBooks It's not uncommon to come across books, particularly from the middle of the last century, where the previous has owner has cut up 😦 the dust jacket and used the spine as a bookmark. This was once a rather lovely #RexWhistler designed jacket! #BookHistory #Bibliophiles
