Library Holdings increase by 50% (or 200% from baseline)

I think I've got my stats correct.  Grimshaw's has received its third book!  This is something of a miracle given the posting address and sender.

Even the Wentworth Post Office is learning (possibly since the retirement of the Post Office Cat who could herself be the subject of a book...).

This is a book of great beauty.

But also a cautionary tale...

Library Holdings increase by 100%

As Library Monitor I'm pleased to announce the acquisition of this new compendium for the library.  It ingeniously consists of a calendar (there's no escaping them) with accompanying storybook.

This brings are library holdings to two (2).  Interestingly our first book is currently on loan to Rufus de Poodles and may have been his inspiration.  The Academy is truly a leader in education.

My Goodness, My Grimshaw

Grimshaw is back and I have relinquished my  position as Top Dog and resumed being Head Perfect.  This gives me more time to blog.  For some reason, Grimshaw is taken with this image from an English calendar.  Siss and I thought it heralded a change of diet but, no, still chicken necks around here.  Siss suggested giraffe necks but they're not easy to find (unless we move to Dubbo).  Actually a move to Dubbo could lift the profile of the Academy. Miss Grimshaw was astonished to receive this sent on by her cousin in Wales with whom she was residing when this missive was penned and posted.
