A whole day of hard work, briefly interspersed with a visit to Emaus. This is a charity organisation that houses homeless people and gives them work by working at what is essentially a big charity shop. They sell furniture and electrical goods, clothes ornaments, plates and perhaps most excitingly for me...books. We have previously made a few discoveries in the art department as I have blogged before, but I get most excited by my book purchases. I really don't have the time to read as much as I like, but I love to be surrounded by good books. Today I purchased an excellent pictorial history of the second world war, several David Attenborough books, and a book of prehistoric and ancient art. Mrs Plug also bought some art books, and I found a small table come magazine rack. I can't help but loving shopping here more than anywhere else. In the evening I enrolled on a diploma course on Drama in Education, the plan being to finish it before my new module in my degree starts. I do wonder about my sanity at times.
