@lisamnicho @1RossGittins Hey there, this is random but I’m a librarian, to read can access most papers free through local or nsw state library online, as long as not commercial use. They pay a subscription, members can use, happy to share instructions for nsw if of interest.

That wicket ball is one of the fullest and widest ball Scott Boland bowled this morning inviting a big drive. Virat Kohli obliged and lost his wicket chasing this wide one.

#SconesJamCream both ways have their charms

[Orkney Library @OrkneyLibrary]

Today's #GoogleDoodle is all about #Scones which reminded us of that time we made a book scone for #NationalCreamTeaDay and had to make it both ways round so we didn't get shouted at by Cornwall/Devon.

Today is #InternationalArchivesDay so we're going to share the story one of our favourite collections from the Orkney Archive. It's a collection of very special, handmade books which were created by three young #Orkney girls in the 1860s.

This is further away than we can comprehend at this time on a Wednesday afternoon.

Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is a definition of insanity. Looking for a book in the same place where everyone else has failed to find it is a definition of library work.

Each scoop of pumpkin or cauliflower ice-cream has half a serve of vegetables and the same nutritional value of cooked vegetables. And as a bonus, is also a way to tackle Australia's growing food waste problem. https://t.co/8fynD0dD7v

@SquigglyRick @angrygrantsays What difference would a different style make? Genuine question from someone who lived in poverty for yonks. Most people didn’t sound any different from this, I didn’t suffer less if people could empathise or read the room.

@strangerous10 Thank you for sharing all of this. Secrecy provisions here cover ‘protected information’, ie about tax affairs. I’d have thought this wasn’t in this class as potential offence criminal code, provisions different? Not sure if commonwealth officer etc.

there is no bright side 😔

[VeryBritishProblems @SoVeryBritish]

There’s no sorrow quite like realising you’ve missed out on a meal deal. I forgot to buy crisps once. I wasn’t thinking. I just bought a sandwich and a drink. The crisps would’ve reduced the total price by over a quid (and I would’ve had crisps!). This was a few years ago now. I still think about it.
