Today's life hack is figuring out how to narrow down my local public library catalogue to just books in my own town library, rather than all Angus. Took me a while! I only rejoined the library last year, mainly borrowing graphic novels now I struggle with print so much due to neuro disease. #Booksky
I do enjoy reading some magazines through the Libby app that Angus Libraries provide access to. But I don't get on too well with the digital ebooks, struggling somewhat with the range available and user interface. But magazines good. And graphic novels work for me from the physical library. #Booksky
We recently started rewatching the Peter Davison era of Doctor Who. Fitting in two episodes every Sunday night. I jotted down thoughts after finishing Castrovalva tonight. We're still working through the Blu-ray special features of interest to us. vivdunstan.dreamwidth.org/793712.html #DoctorWho
Gorgeous male grey wagtail in the Dighty Burn at Panmurefield. A female and younger ones were nearby. I don't think I've seen one with such rich colours before. 📷📸🎞️🪶 #birds #ukwildlife
