Birmingham (๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง) based. Reader, bad cricketer, cat owner. Jack of few trades and master of none. Perennial procrastinator and abandoner of new hobbies. Political when I can bear to face the state of things. Academic arts and humanities librarian. Interests as diverse as my scattered attention. No idea what Iโ€™m doing.
A casual reminder that, when describing resources, itโ€™s sometimes absolutely essential to include the definite article ๐Ÿ˜ #librariansofmastodon #librarylife
Watched the 3 Minutes West / Dutch National Ballet #coppelia yesterday. Just came across it randomly, expecting Delibesโ€ฆ After an initial discombobulation, it was captivating: a cute take on the story (with a couple of more nods to the Hoffmann original), with lovely music and a really great cast of dancers. Did miss some of the Delibes bangers though. #ballet
Watching #hisdarkmaterials S03E02 and I have one recurring question:
Who is doing Mrs. Coulterโ€™s ironing in this remote cove?

Went to the pub with husband to digest S3E1 of #hisdarkmaterials and effuse copiously over the books that were a huge part of our dating conversations 15 years ago.

Glad the wait is over for this - but not, as yet, The Book of Dust pt.3. A good moment, if you ask us, for Pullman to call time on his presence on Muskโ€™s World of the Dead and get scribbling!!

Few days away with husband after a tough couple of weeks, MH-wise. Always enjoy a trip to Europa-Park in Baden-Wรผrttemberg, Germany for a reset. And itโ€™s so pretty here! #europapark #baden-wรผrttemberg #rollercoasters #themepark
Though this world's essentially an absurd place to be living in / It doesn't call for total withdrawal / I've been told it's a fact of life / Men have to kill one another. / Well I say there are still things worth fighting for. / Het verzet!
But credit where credit is due, ICE train overhead luggage racks are very capacious and can take large holdalls.
Another classic from #DeutscheBahn. Half the train not working. Do they tell the passengers waiting to board? Of course not lol.
Hello Iโ€™m a #lgbt #librarian in the #uk and I have no idea what Iโ€™m doing - anyone want to point me to any cool people to follow?
