"We expect no rain," said the weatherman, but it did

Doreen provides the reasoning behind none of us minions knowing about the Society of Chief Librarians' national "join one library and you've joined them all" programme which kicked in this week.

"We'd discussed this in Policy Team but we hadn't got a date for it."

I was on the point of asking why they hadn't planned and primed everybody so that once we knew a date we could set the machine in motion and do a bit of pre-publicity when I remembered that every single big piece of work I'm struggling with at the moment actually had a launch date set in stone and they still didn'y plan or prime anyway and I spared myself an embarassing redundancy.

The trouble with setting things in stone is the cheapness of stones: if it goes wrong you can always throw it away and start with another stone.

Gadjo: we're saving the stones to throw at somebody if they don't buck their ideas up.
