A member of the Sealed Knot Society pitched into life-and-death struggle with a division of tanks

Kind friends have asked about the state of Helminthdale's libraries during the current unpleasantness. The truth of the matter is that by any objective measure the general lack of devastatingly bad news would be a good thing if we were not in the fantasy world of Helminthdale, where a lack of bad news generally means that it's being stacked up for the holiday season. The one cast-iron guaranteed for certain absolute truth available to us is that the council will not be closing any libraries.

The buildings that host some of our libraries are going to be closed, but that's another thing entirely...

Oh I know this trick....it starts with job sharing and desk sharing and then premises sharing....keep your hand on your halfpenny and your eyes peeled because those in charge are sneaky buggers....

Courage, mon brave, let us know if you need extra bodies to man the barricades.
