Delivery day for my home library clients. A page-turner for the lady convalescing, the latest Bond for my man who likes crime writing, a trio of easy readers in large print for the lady who likes Joanna Trollope. And finally; an hour of chatter with Mrs E plus an art book on MOMA (we discussed how disappointed she was to miss her Open University course trip to New York last time I delivered), a book on an interesting St Ives artist to remind her of holidays there, and a couple of cosy crime novels for some light reading in between.

Fussed the retirement complex feline resident on the way out.
